PREFACE 


TO  THE  ENGLISH  EDITION. 


The  compiler  of  the  following  work  proposed  to  him- 
self chiefly  to  meet  the  difficulty  under  which  those  unac- 
quainted with  the  learned  languages  necessarily  labour, 
in  ascertaining  with  clearness  and  precision,  the  true  and 
radical  signification  of  words  derived  from  foreign 
tongues.  In  consulting  our  popular  dictionaries,  the 
young  and  unlettered  find  themselves  much  embarrassed, 
at  one  time,  by  numerous  and  philosophical  definitions 
given  in  explanation  of  some  simple  vocable ; at  another, 
by  finding  a word  defined  by  another  equally  difficult  to 
understand,  and  which,  on  being  turned  up,  refers  them 
again  to  that,  the  meaning  of  which  they  are  in  quest  of. 
It  is  needless  to  state  that  such  embarrassments  must 
greatly  tend  to  cool  the  ardor,  and  repress  the  aspiring 
efforts  of  the  young  mind  in  the  pursuit  of  knowledge. 

He  also  conceived  that,  by  presenting  the  words  of  the 
language  arranged  according  to  their  genera,  and  under 
their  respective  roots,  he  would  abridge  and  facilitate  the 
labours  both  of  teacher  and  pupil. 

The  principle  on  which  the  work  has  been  constructed, 
brings  into  full  operation  the  pupil’s  powers  of  discrimi- 
nation and  judgment;  and  while  it  awakens  interest,  and 
excites  curiosity,  he  unconsciously  acquires  those  element- 
ary ideas  of  vocables,  which  will  guide  him  in  the  proper 
and  legitimate  application  of  them. 

The  languages  from  which  by  far  the  greater  propor- 
tion of  English  words  now  in  use  originally  come,  are 
Greek  and  Latin.  The  compiler  has  intentionally  ab-

stained  from  introducing  words  of  Saxon  origin.  These 
properly  constitute  our  mother  tongue ; and  as  they  in 
general  express  simple  ideas,  and  are  familiar  to  us  from 
our  infancy,  it  appeared  to  him  that  their  admission  would 
have  swelled  the  work  to  an  inconvenient  size.  With  the 
exception,  therefore,  of  the  prefixes  and  postfixes,  they 
are  omitted.  Words  borrowed  from  the  French,  Spanish, 
and  modern  Italian,  being  derived  chiefly  from  Latin 
roots, — ^though  much  altered,  both  in  orthography  and 
inflection, — are  in  general  inserted  under  the  Latin 
primitives.^ 

When  the  usual  acceptation  of  a word  differs  from  its 
literal,  the  peculiarity  is  generally  explained  in  the  notes, 
in  which  the  interpretations  of  Johnson  and  Webster  are 
generally  adopted ; and  in  every  word  of  extensive  use, 
it  was  judged  requisite  to  mark  the  progress  of  its  mean- 
ing, and  show  by  what  gradations  it  has  passed  from  its 
primitive  to  its  remote  and  accidental  signification.  ‘‘  In 
most  cases,”  says  Webster,  “this  change  consists  in  a 
slight  deflection,  or  difference  of  application,  which  has 
obtained  among  different  families  of  the  same  stock.  In 
some  cases,  the  literal  sense  is  lost  or  obscured,  and  the 
figurative  only  is  retained.  The  first  object,  in  such  cases, 
is  to  find  the  primary  or  literal  sense,  from  which  the 
various  particular  applications  may  be  easily  deduced.” 
These  nicer  shades  of  the  common  meaning,  which  dis- 
tinguish the  diflTerent  periods  in  the  history  of  language, 
are  discoverable  only  by  a careful  attention  to  the  gene- 
ral scope  of  the  passage. 

Many  scientific  and  technical  terms  now  in  use,  have 
been  traced  to  their  source,  and  defined  in  their  restricted 
or  appropriate  application. 

Obsolete  words  have  also  been  admitted,  when  they 
are  found  in  standard  works,  or  when  they  possess  such

a degree  of  force  and  beauty  as  may  render  them  de- 
serving of  revival. 

As  the  prepositions  or  prefixes  in  all  languages  consti- 
tute an  important  class  of  vocables,  being  used  in  com- 
position to  vary  the  sense  of  other  parts  of  speech  to  an 
unlimited  extent,  it  was  deemed  useful  to  give  them  a 
particular  consideration.  The  first  forty  pages  are  occu- 
pied in  illustrating  and  arranging  them  according  to  their 
respective  languages.  Every  word,  or  one  of  each  class 
in  which  the  prefixes  occur,  has  been  given.  Another 
important  genus  of  vocables  are  the  affixes  or  termina- 
tions.  Accordingly,  particular  care  has  been  taken,  and 
a new  plan  adopted,  to  determine  their  precise  import 
They  have  been  alphabetically  classified  and  arranged 
according  to  the  modification  of  noun,  adjective,  verb, 
and  adverb.  By  means  of  an  accurate  knowledge  of  the 
prefix  and  postfix,  together  with  the  root,  the  primary  or 
radical  signification  of  the  word  may  be  easily  ascertain- 
ed, as  well  as  the  elements  of  the  figurative  meaning  de- 
tected. 

This  method  must  greatly  facilitate  the  acquisition  of 
our  vernacular  tongue  to  foreigners,  as  well  as  to  our 
own  countrymen,  and  may  in  some  degree  rescue  it  from 
the  mischievous  influence  of  sciolists,  and  from  that  over- 
weening spirit  of  innovation,  which  is  perpetually  dis- 
turbing its  settled  usages,  and  filling  it  with  anomalies. 

As  the  plan  on  which  the  following  dictionary  is  com- 
piled, differs  materially  from  that  of  every  preceding  one, 
a few  explanatory  examples  may  be  necessary  to  illus- 
trate its  principle,  and  exhibit  the  manner  in  which  it 
may  be  used  in  tuition.  Suppose  the  word  ‘ attraction^ 
should  occur,  the  pupil  may  be  asked,  What  is  the  literal 
meaning  of  the  word  ^attraction  V He  will  answer,  ‘ a 
draumg  to,’  or  * the  act  or  power  of  drawmg  to.  From

Here,  in  alphabetical  order  or  otherwise,  the  other  words 
derived  from  ‘ tract*  may  be  elicited.  Some  such  interro- 
gatories as  the  following  may  be  put  by  the  teacher. 
Give  a word  -signifying  to  draw  from.  The  pupil  will 
answer,  ‘Abstract’  (See  ‘ abs,’  p.  34)— Having  power  to

teacher  giving  the  word,  and  requesting  the  pupil  to  state 
its  meaning,  or  the  pupil  may  be  called  upon  to  mention 
some  or  all  the  w’ords  derived  from  that  root

INTRODUCTION 


BY  THE  AMERICAN  EDITOR 


In  the  business  of  Practical  Education,  mind  is  the  constant 
subject  upon  which  we  operate.  In  a book,  then,  like  the 
present,  intended  for  the  purpose  of  teaching  the  English 
Language  by  analysing  the  structure  of  our  words,  it  seems 
at  least  reasonable,  if  not  indispensable,  that  some  observa- 
tions on  the  powers  of  the  mind,  and  the  mode  of  their 
developement  by  language,  with  the  application  of  those 
principles  in  the  practice  of  instruction,  should  form  an  intro- 
ductory department  to  the  work. 

With  these  views  we  shall  present,  with  as  much  brevity 
as  may  be  appropriate  to  our  design,  some  elementary  notices 
of  the  operations  of  the  mind,  infer  some  practical  principles, 
examine  the  relation  of  these  principles  to  language,  and  then 
proceed  to  offer  a practical  method  of  using  this  work  in 
accordance  with  the  doctrines  laid  down. 

When  we  examine  the  nature  of  our  thoughts,  we  find  that 
they  consist  of  a recurrence  to  our  minds  of  what  we  have 
seen^  heard,  tasted,  smelled,  or  felt,  and  mental  combinations 
and  judgments  concerning  those  things.  Of  the  truth  of  this 
position  every  one  must  be  convinced,  who  has  paid  only  a 
slight  attention  to  the  operations  of  his  own  mind. 

An  idea,  then,  is  nothing  more  than  a mental  perception  of 
an  absent  object,  its  qualities  or  actions ; or  it  is  the  mental 
repetition  of  our  sensations. 

If  our  ideas  are  derived  from  our  sensations,  the  primary 
business  of  Intellectual  Education  should  be  the  cultivation 
and  strengthening  of  the  senses,  and  the  perceptive  power 
through  them.  This  would  lay  the  foundation  for  subsequent 
acquirements. 

By  the  perceptive  power  we  mean  the  faculty  by  which  the 
mind  is  conscious  of  the  various  sensations  communicated 
through  the  organs  of  sense.  By  the  faculty  of  attention  we 
give  direction  to  our  percipient  power,  and  are  capable  of 

1 * 5

INTRODUCTION 


holding  an  object  before  our  mind,  so  as  to  examine  it  minutely, 
The  faculty  of  attention  becomes,  from  this  circumstance,  the 
medium  of  furnishing  our  memory,  judgment,  and  reasoning 
power  with  the  materials  upon  which  they  may  operate.  If 
we  are  capable  of  fixing  our  attention  vigorously,  our  memory 
and  judgment  will  necessarily  possess  similar  vigour.  If,  on 
the  contrary,  we  possess  but  little  power  to  direct  and  fix  our 
attention,  our  memory  and  judgment  will  exhibit  the  same 
debility.  To  acquire  a habit,  therefore,  of  fixing  our  attention 
steadily  and  undividedly  on  any  object  of  thought,  so  as  to 
trace  out  all  its  attributes  and  relations,  is  a matter  of  the 
greatest  moment  in  a good  system  of  intellectual  discipline. 

The  cultivation  of  our  senses  by  a course  of  suitable  exer- 
cises invigorates  the  power  of  attention.  The  senses  that 
should  be  particularly  exercised  are  those  of  sight  and  touch. 
The  reason  why  these  two  senses  should  receive  the  greatest 
cultivation,  is,  that  the  sensations  acquired  by  them  form  the 
pivot  upon  which  all  the  other  sensations  revolve.  It  is 
through  touch  that  we  receive  our  ideas  of  space  and  location; 
and  these  ideas  of  space  and  location  as  they  exist  in  the  per- 
ceptive faculty,  constitute  the  substratum  on  which  all  our 
sensations  rest.  They  perform  the  part  of  the  canvas,  on 
which  our  imagination  paints  all  her  pictures  and  scenes. 
And  it  is  in  this  way  that  space  and  location  become  the  great 
foundation  for  memory ; for,  without  the  aid  of  those  element- 
ary ideas,  it  would  be  the  next  thing  to  impossible  to  im- 
prove, or  even  to  retain  our  faculty  of  reminiscence. 

But  although  our  ideas  of  space  and  location  are  originated 
by  the  sense  of  touch,  they  are  very  soon  transferred  by  asso- 
ciation to  the  sense  of  seeing,  in  every  human  being  who  has 
the  use  of  his  eyes.  The  infinite  variety  and  pleasing  appear- 
ance of  colours,  may  have  a great  influence  in  giving  sight 
such  a predominant  superiority  over  the  sense  of  touch. 
Whatever  may  be  the  cause,  it  is,  nevertheless,  an  undoubted 
fact,  that  sight  is  the  overwhelming  sense,  and  that  it  bears 
off  with  it  all  the  other  sensations  of  taste,  smell,  hearing,  and 
even  touch  itself. 

From  what  has  been  said,  we  may  venture  the  position, 
that  ice  think  in  pictures  and  scenes.  That  this  is  true,  is  evi- 
dent from  the  terms  used  in  all  languages  to  express  our

intellectual  operations,  as  well  as  from  the  simple  reflections 
of  our  own  minds.  To  exemplify  the  correctness  of  our 
views  with  regard  to  the  influence  of  ocular  perception  and 
location  in  arresting  attention  and  securing  mental  retention, 
we  need  only  refer  to  the  art  of  Mnemonics  y an  art  whose 
sole  dependence  is  upon  the  visible  imagery  and  symbols 
which  it  call^  to  its  assistance.  The  surprising  instances 
which  some  teachers  of  this  art  give  us  of  persons  remember- 
ing long  and  difficult  series  of  events,  can  all  be  explained  on 
this  principle.  In  our  every-day  experience  also  we  perceive 
the  great  tenaciousness  of  our  memory  whenever  we  asso- 
ciate visible  scenes,  or  symbols  and  places,  with  ideas  of  any 
kind. 

The  method  of  teaching  the  deaf  and  dumb  may  likewise 
be  brought  forward  as  evidence  in  proof  of  the  effect  of 
visual  sensation  and  location  on  the  memory.  In  teaching 
these  persons,  every  thing  must  be  pictorial,  scenic,  and  pan- 
tomimic ; and  this  is  the  reason  why  they  learn  so  fast  and 
remember  so  well. 

The  more  we  reduce  all  our  knowledge  to  this  form,  the 
more  perfectly  will  it  be  remembered.  This  truth  should, 
therefore,  be  made  a leading  principle  in  the  education  of  the 
intellectual  faculties.  So  far  as  it  has  been  applied,  it  has 
displayed  the  most  valuable  results.  Every  teacher  is  ac- 
quainted with  the  importance  of  counters  in  teaching  Arith- 
metic, of  maps  in  teaching  Geography,  and  of  charts  on  the 
plan  of  Le  Sage  and  Priestley  in  giving  an  accurate  know- 
ledge of  History  and  Biography.  Historical  paintings,  also, 
become  the  nuclei  for  concentrating  and  fixing  thousands  of 
ideas,  which,  without  their  aid,  would  be  as  evanescent  as  a 
wasting  cloud.  In  Natural  Philosophy  and  Chemistry,  also, 
the  experiments,  apparatus  and  associations  of  the  lecture- 
room,  form  the  scenery  in  which  our  scientific  ideas  perma- 
nently reside.  The  same  may  be  said  of  all  the  Natural 
Sciences ; and  the  view  may  be  extended  even  to  Ethics,  and 
the  most  abstruse  of  what  are  called  the  Abstract  Sciences. 
For  we  can  have  no  distinct  idea  of  the  meaning  of  the  tergis 
good^  had^  honesty  fraudulent,  benevolent,  &c.,  without  iden- 
tifying these  words  with  scenic  actions  exhibiting  those 
attributes  of  moral  character.

INTRODUCTION 


Following  out  these  views  in  a course  of  practical  educa- 
tion, we  ought  to  make  all  nature  a tablet  of  Mnemonic  Sym- 
bols, with  which  we  might  naturally  associate  their  appro- 
priate ideas.  All  the  scenic  ideas  thus  located  would  form  a 
world  of  experimental  facts  to  supply  us  with  funds  in  our 
generalization  of  principles ; or  in  other  words,  in  the  con- 
struction of  our  systems  of  science. 

There  are  two  intellectual  operations  which  should  be  con- 
tinually kept  in  exercise  in  a course  of  mental  training. 
These  are  generalization  and  analysis.  By  generalization 
we  mean  the  classification  of  objects  by  some  resemblance 
in  some  of  their  parts  or  attributes.  By  analysis  is  meant 
the  examination  of  an  individual  object,  for  the  purpose  of 
separating  it  into  its  different  parts,  and  noticing  its  various 
properties  and  actions.  Correct  and  minute  analysis  becomes 
the  source  of  accurate  generalization ; and  generalization  is 
the  origin  of  all  the  sciences.  These  two  processes  consti- 
tute, in  the  hands  of  a skilful  teacher,  a most  important  means 
of  exercising  the  pupil’s  mind  and  increasing  his  store  of 
knowledge.  Analysis  cultivates  the  faculty  of  attention,  and 
renders  the  memory  tenacious.  Generalization  has  a similar 
effect  on  our  powers  of  recollection  by  connecting  to  one 
point  or  principle  a vast  variety  of  useful  facts  existing  in 
different  subjects. 

In  conducting  a series  of  Analyses  and  Classifications  with  a 
pupil,  we  shall  derive  much  advantage  from  questions.  Inter- 
rogatories fix  the  attention,  and  by  that  means  strengthen  it.  It 
is  in  this  way  that  the  interrogatory  system  lately  brought 
into  use  in  Europe  and  this  country,  has  been  attended  with 
such  valuable  results.  This  is  properly  the  method  of  the 
ancients  revived.  Their  most  efficient  instructors  taught  on 
this  plan  : and  the  categories  of  Aristotle  can  be  considered 
useful  in  no  other  light,  than  as  they  are  the  means  of  inves- 
tigating a subject  by  a course  of  interrogatories,  and  thus 
arresting  the  attention  and  securing  knowledge. 

As  language  is  the  medium  through  which  knowledge  is 
communicated,  it  may  be  proper  to  examine  the  office  of 
\^ords  with  reference  to  the  theory  we  have  given  of  the 
thinking  process. 

Words  stand  either  for  whole  objects  or  for  parts;  for

whole  scenes,  or  for  some  portion  or  action  in  a scene.  Thus, 
the  word  body  represents  a whole  consisting  of  many  parts, 
as,  the  head,  trunk,  extremities ; and  the  term  head  includes 
in  it  the  ideas  represented  hy  face,  forehead,  eyes,  ears,  nose, 
mouth,  &c.  So  journey,  voyage,  vintage,  harvest,  represent 
scenes,  or  rather  series  of  scenic  actions,  as  portions  of  the 
whole,  which  can  be  expressed  by  subordinate  terms.  And 
as  language  would  be  imperfect  if  we  had  only  words  for 
objects  and  scenes,  it  was  found  necessary  to  be  more  minute, 
and  hence  we  have  a vocabulary  furnishing  the  means  of 
describing  specific  actions  and  qualities. 

Words  then,  being  used  not  only  as  signs  for  whole  objects 
and  their  parts,  but  also  for  their  qualities,  actions  and  uses, 
become,  as  Condillac  observes,  our  most  useful  instruments 
of  analysis.  They  are,  from  the  same  circumstance,  equally 
the  instrument  of  generalization.  The  minute  appropriation 
of  terms  concentrates  attention  by  limiting  the  range  of  men- 
tal vision,  and  thus  insures  accuracy  of  thought. 

When  we  look  at  words  in  this  light,  as  the  means  by  which 
we  communicate  our  thoughts  to.  one  another,  we  may  com- 
pare them  to  the  pencil  of  the  painter.  Each  word  traces 
out  in  the  imagination  of  the  hearer,  either  the  whole  of  an 
object,  or  some  part,  or  quality,  or  action.  All  the  elementar)^ 
images  and  scenes  exist  in  a latent  state,  in  the  mind  of  the 
hearer ; and  the  speaker  by  a successive  analysis  of  his  pic- 
tures and  scenes,  by  means  of  words,  raises  the  same  in  the 
mind  of  the  hearer.  If  the  hearer  or  reader  can  readily  re- 
alize or  embody  the  scenery  presented  by  words,  he  is  said 
to  understand  the  speaker  or  author;  and  if  not,  the  language 
is  said  to  be  unintelligible. 

It  is  this  ability  to  excite  in  the  minds  of  others,  by  means 
of  word?s,  a train  of  ideas  similar  to  what  is  passing  in  our 
own  minds,  that  peculiarly  distinguishes  man  from  the  brute 
creation,  and  enables  him  to  improve  his  condition  and  be- 
come a social  and  civilized  being.  The  state  and  progress  of 
civilization  in  any  nation,  is  uniformly  indicated  by  the  num- 
ber of  their  terms  and  the  correctness  of  their  application. 
Schlegel,  in  his  History  of  Literature,  remarks,  that  “ there  is 
no  impiety  in  sajdng,  that  it  was  scarcely  in  the  power  of 
the  Deity  to  confer  on  man  a more  glorious  present  than  Ian-

guage,  by  which  He  himself  is  revealed  to  us,  and  which  at 
once  affords  the  strongest  bond  of  union  and  the  best  instru- 
ment of  communication.”  “ So  inseparable  indeed,”  con- 
tinues he,  “ are  mind  and  speech,  so  identically  one  are 
thought  and  language,  that  although  we  must  always  hold 
reason  as  the  greatest  characteristic  and  peculiar  attribute 
of  man ; yet  language,  when  we  regard  its  original  object 
and  intrinsic  dignity,  is  well  entitled  to  be  considered  as  a 
component  part  of  the  intellectual  structure  of  our  being.” 

We  shall  now  notice  briefly  the  beneficial  effects  of  words 
on  the  human  understanding,  as  evinced  in  the  manner  in 
which  they  improve  the  powers  of  attention^  memory^  judg- 
ment, and  reasoning. 

We  have  before  taken  notice  of  some  circumstances  influ- 
encing the  faculty  of  attention,  and  observed  that  its  perfec- 
tion consists  in  our  ability  to  fix  it  steadily  on  any  point  of 
inquiry.  It  is  imperfect  also  in  proportion  as  it  is  unsteady, 
and  this  unsteadiness  is  one  of  the  greatest  obstacles  to  our 
progress  in  knowledge.  A child,  before  it  can  speak  or  un- 
derstand well  what  is  said  to  it,  is  a striking  example  of  this 
want  of  fixity.  Its  attention  is  ever  veering,  and  its  know- 
ledge is  then  extremely  limited.  But  so  soon  as  it  is  able  to 
use  words,  it  acquires  such  a power  of  directing  its  attention 
to  its  own  ideas,  and  the  objects  represented  bywords,  that  it 
surprises  us  by  the  acquirements  it  makes  during  the  first 
year  after  it  begins  to  talk. 

Words  oblige  the  mind  to  fix  itself  and  to  proceed  more 
regularly  and  slowly  than  it  could  without  them ; and  this 
regularity  insures  the  soundest  progress.  Language  in  this 
sense  may  be  called  a bridle  to  the  roving  mind ; and  on  this 
account,  it  may  be  useful  to  man  as  a solitary  being  as  well 
as  a member  of  society.  We  can  thus  readily  perceive  how 
the  use  of  words  trains  the  faculty  of  attention. 

The  memory  is  that  power  of  the  mind  by  which  we  are 
capable  of  retaining  our  perceptions,  or  of  resuscitating  them 
at  will.  This  faculty  is  stronger  or  weaker  in  proportion  as 
it  is  capable  of  bringing  forward  many  or  few  ideas,  or  as 
these  are  correct  or  incorrect,  distinct  or  confused.  It  is 
dependent  on  the  power  of  attention  as  well  for  its  accuracy 
as  for  its  vigor.  The  memory  can  be  improved  id  a surpris-

ing  extent,  and  this  chiefly  by  the  effect  which  repetition  has 
in  commanding  renewed  attention  to  the  same  idea,  and  thus 
making  a more  permanent  impression.  Here  words  begin  to 
assume  their  true  office,  and  become  in  reality  the  instru- 
^ ments  by  which  the  mind  carries  on  its  thinking  process. 
We  would  not,  with  some  metaphysicians,  go  so  far  as  to 
say,  that  we  can  not  think  without  words ; but  we  feel  our- 
selves authorised  in  asserting,  that  they  are  the  memoran- 
dums of  our  ideas,  and  are  absolutely  necessary  to  us  for 
retaining  the  greater  portion  of  our  thoughts.  By  means  of 
language  we  can  tie  down  to  a word,  an  idea,  which  can  at 
any  time  be  recalled,  and  which  would  otherwise  be  as 
evanescent  as  our  breath.  When  we  refer  to  our  own  expe- 
rience, we  shall  soon  perceive  how  many  ideas  lie  dormant  in 
the  mind  until  brought  into  active  existence  by  words ! How 
often  does  a traveller,  in  passing  through  a country  abound- 
ing with  all  the  beauties  of  nature,  and  art,  find  that  his  remin- 
iscences are  very  faint  until  he  has  clothed  them  in  language ! 
Immediately,  they  assume  a permanence  of  which  he  was  not 
before  aware.  How  frequently  also  does  the  poet,  in  describ- 
ing the  most  familiar  scenes  in  the  natural  and  moral  world, 
please  and  surprise  us  by  simply  individualising  and  identify- 
ing all  our  previous  ideas  by  words ! It  cannot  be  said  that 
he  gives  a single  new  image,  but  he  really  presents  us  with 
another  sight  of  the  same  pleasing  objects.  The  attention  is 
directed  to  them,  and  the  remembrance  of  them  becomes 
more  perfect  and  agreeable. 

By  our  judging  faculty  we  perceive  the  resemblances  and 
differences  among  our  thoughts.  In  order  to  judge  rightly 
of  things  which  are  subjected  to  our  senses,  we  need  only 
possess  a proper  command  of  attention.  But  to  form  correct 
judgments  on  subjects  which  are  not  under  our  immediate 
observation,  we  need  accuracy  of  memory  as  well  as  fixity 
of  attention.  Here  is  seen  the  great  value  of  these  two  fun- 
damental faculties  of  the  mind.  We  have  already  seen  that 
they  are  very  much  improved  by  language,  and  our  judgment 
mmst  necessarily  be  improved  by  the  same  means.  Words 
being  the  representatives  of  our  ideas,  precision  and  propriety 
in  the  use  of  them,  must  necessarily  imply  a similar  preci- 
sion and  discrimination  among  our  thoughts.  An  attention,

INTRODUCTION 


therefore,  to  the  true  meaning  of  words  must  tend  to  improve 
our  judgment.  In  examining,  for  instance,  the  difference  or 
similarity  of  signification  of  two  words,  we  are  obliged  to 
attach  certain  ideas  to  the  one,  or  to  separate  certain  ideas 
from  the  other.  This  is  an  exercise  implying  the  exertion  of 
both  attention  and  memory.  Thus,  language,  as  we  advance 
in  a kno  wledge  of  it,  affords  one  of  the  best  means  of  strength- 
ening this  most  valuable  power  of  the  human  understanding, 
and  its  acquisition  may  be  made,  by  a rational  mode  of  teach- 
ing, one  of  the  best  introductions  to  the  study  of  the  science 
of  Logic. 

Reasoning  may  be  said  to  be  a train  of  judgments ; the 
subsequent  ones  depending  on  their  antecedents  for  their 
correctness  and  value.  They  are  the  links  of  which  reason- 
ing is  the  chain — a chain  which,  considered  either  as  a whole 
or  in  its  various  parts,  owes  its  strength  to  the  mysterious 
agency  of  words.  The  capability  to  reason  well,  must  depend 
on  the  number  and  accuracy  of  the  discriminations  we  make 
among  our  ideas.  Precision,  then,  in  the  definition  of  our 
terms,  is  a prerequisite  to  good  reasoning.  This  is  exempli- 
fied in  the  correctness  of  mathematical  demonstrations ; for 
here  every  word  has  a definite  meaning,  and  by  this  means 
prevents  misapprehension  or  prevarication.  In  speaking  on 
precision  in  the  use  of  words,  Condillac  justly  observes,  “ that 
a correct  language  and  good  reasoning  are  inseparably  con- 
nected and  a proper  study  of  it,  by  leading  us  to  examine 
into  the  true  meaning  and  right  application  of  words,  will 
furnish  a fund,  from  which  we  may  draw,  as  occasion  may 
require,  for  conducting  all  the  various  investigations  in  which 
we  may  be  engaged. 

Having  thus  briefly  stated  the  manner  in  which  we  con- 
ceive that  words  invigorate  the  mental  powers,  we  shall  next 
present  several  subdivisions  of  the  subject  of  Language,  and 
add  a few  remarks  of  a practical  nature  on  them. 

One  division  of  language  may  be  into  Oral  and  Written,  and 
another  into  Common  Language  and  Terminology,  or  the 
terms  employed  in  the  arrangements  and  reasonings  of  the 
different  sciences. 

Oral  Language  is  of  every  day  use,  and  indispensable  to 
man  as  a social  being.  By  its  means,  the  infant  min^  »•  drained

to  order  and  thinking.  It  is  peculiarly  adapted  to  early  edu- 
cation ; and  children  until  they  are  six  years  of  age  should 
be  taught  entirely  by  oral  instruction. 

But,  however  valuable  oral  language  may  be,  we  find  that 
nations  who  have  advanced  no  farther  than  the  use  of  audible 
^ signs  of  ideas,  have  never  made  any  great  progress  in  civil- 
ization. Hence  the  art  of  representing  our  thoughts  by  visible 
signs,  may  indeed  be  called  “ the  greatest  and  most  impor- 
tant discovery  of  human  ingenuity.”  The  art  of  writing  has 
this  great  advantage  over  oral  language,  that  it  is  not  con- 
fined by  time  nor  space.  By  its  instrumentality,  the  experi- 
ence and  wisdom  of  past  ages  can  be  rendered  subservient 
to  the  improvement  of  all  succeeding  time.  Spoken  language 
serves  the  present  purpose  and  the  present  time,  and  “ perishes 
in  the  using but  written  language  gives  to  the  airy  beings 
of  our  minds,  not  only  “ a name,  but  a local  habitation.” 

But  to  give  these  views  a truly  practical  bearing,  we  would 
observe,  that  the  acquisition  of  the  habit  of  committing  our 
thoughts  to  paper,  is  a matter  of  the  greatest  importance  to 
civilized  man,  and  ought  to  be  the  paramount  object  of  a school 
education.  The  pen  has  a still  greater  influence  in  regulating 
the  mental  powers  than  speech,  by  the  slowness  and  order 
which  it  obliges  us  to.  pursue  in  combining  our  ideas.  Our  con- 
clusions will  be  the  result  of  a longer  attention  to  the  objects 
under  consideration,  and,  consequently,  will  be  more  likely  to 
be  true.  Beside  the  regularity  which  the  practice  of  compose 
tion  introduces  into  the  mind,  there  is  an  additional  reason 
for  making  it  an  early  part  of  a scholastic  course ; and  that 
is,  if  it  is  not  commenced  before  the  age  of  twelve  or  fifteen, 
it  will  be  much  more  difficult  to  acquire  the  art  of  readily 
penning  our  thoughts  afterwards.  The  reason  of  this  will 
be  obvious,  when  we  reflect  that  no  two  actions  can  be  per- 
formed at  one  and  the  same  time,  unless  they  have  been  long 
rendered  easy  by  previously  established  habit.  The  habit  of 
thinMng  and  speaking  at  once^  commences  in  the  first  efforts 
of  a child  to  lisp  its  words.  But  the  habit  of  thinking  and 
writing  at  the  same  time,  is  acquired  by  very  few  indeed,  so 
as  to  be  performed  with  a desirable  facility  or  freedom  from 
constraint.  The  only  reason  that  we  can  assign  for  this  de- 
ficiency, which  obtains  so  generally,  is  that  children  are  not

early  taught  to  put  their  ideas  on  paper,  so  as  to  establish  as 
perfectly  the  association  of  the  process  of  thinking  and  wriU 
ing,  as  that  of  thinking  and  talking;  and  in  after-life,  they 
are  scarcely  ever  able  to  form  the  habit. 

We  frequently  meet  with  persons  who  can  dictate  a letter 
to  another  with  ease,  but  the  moment  they  attempt  to  com- 
bine the  motion  of  their  pen  with  the  exercise  of  their  thoughts, 
all  their  arrangements  become  confused,  and  they  are  inca- 
pable of  effecting  their  intentions  at  all  to  their  satisfaction. 

May  we  not  hence  explain  how  it  has  happened  that  many 
men  of  great  natural  genius  and  inventive  powers,  have  not 
left  behind  them  any  written  traces  of  their  superiority  to  the 
common  mass  of  mankind  1 They  may  have  laboured  under 
the  magic  spell  of  this  incurable  embarrassment.  We,  like- 
wise, sometimes  see  a man  who,  in  the  pulpit,  or  at  the  bar, 
shall  bear  his  willing  hearers’  feelings  with  him ; who  shall 
please,  as  well  by  the  propriety  of  his  arguments,  as  by  the 
elegance  of  his  diction,  and  the  beauty  of  his  figures ; and 
yet,  this  man  shall  not  be  able  to  pen  any  one  of  his  fine 
extemporary  efforts,  so  as  to  please  either  himself  or  his 
most  flattering  admirers. 

When  we  view  the  practice  of  composition  in  the  light  in 
which  these  circumstances  place  it,  it  assumes  an  importance, 
as  a school  exercise,  second  to  none  in  the  whole  course  of 
Intellectual  Education.  It  is  much  to  be  regretted  that  writ- 
ten compositions  are  so  generally  neglected  in  our  schools 
for  younger  pupils,  and  not  commenced  until  they  have  nearly 
passed  the  age  at  which  new  habits  are  easily  formed.  By 
this  neglect,  much  of  their  usefulness  to  society  and  them- 
selves may  be  forever  prevented. 

Our  other  division  of  language,  was,  into  Common  and 
Technical.  By  the  Common  Language  may  be  understood, 
the  words  in  daily  use* on  the  miscellaneous  topics  which 
occupy  the  attention  of  mankind.  This  portion  of  language 
is  most  used,  and,  therefore,  most  necessary;  but  its  frequent 
use  need  not  lessen  the  high  estimate  which  we  should  set  on 
Terminology,  or  the  nomenclature  adopted  in  the  different 
sciences.  Terminology  has  been  the  result  of  the  advance 
of  science  from  vagueness  to  accuracy,  and  from  the  poverty 
of  its  infancy,  to  the  riches  and  abundance  of  its  mature  age.

It  is  the  bond  which  gives  scientific  research  its  stability  and 
consistency,  and  preserves  in  their  proper  places  the  various 
additions  of  successive  ages. 

With  respect  to  Technical  Language,  we  have  considera- 
ble advantage  over  the  ancients.  Ours  is  more  definite,  as 
well  as  more  extensive.  The  rapid  progress  of  science  is 
constantly  enlarging  the  range  of  its  vocabulary.  To  enter 
upon  the  investigations  of  science,  or  keep  up  with  its  im- 
provements, we  must  know  its  terms ; and  since  it  has  for- 
tunately become  fashionable  to  make  its  researches  tributary 
to  the  comfort  of  common  life,  and  the  happiness  of  our  race, 
Terminology  should  be  as  generally  taught  as  Common  Lan- 
guage. By  this  means,  a key  will  be  afforded  to  the  youthfui 
mind  by  which  it  can  have  access  to  the  varied  treasures  of 
knowledge. 

On  the  subject  of  Terminology  our  English  dictionaries 
have  been  extremely  defective.  We  shall  in  vain  look  even 
in  Johnson’s  quarto  work  for  some  of  the  most  common  sci- 
entific terms.  And  in  those  that  have  been  compiled  since 
his  time,  with  the  exception  of  Webster’s,  there  will  not  be 
found  the  terms  used  in  the  improved  state  of  Chemistry, 
Mineralogy,  and  the  other  natural  sciences ; while  obsolete 
words,  that  may  not  be  met  with  more  than  once  in  a life- 
time, are  carefully  given.  Lexicographers  object  to  the  intro- 
duction of  technical  nomenclatures  into  their  dictionaries,  on 
account  of  their  liability  to  be  changed  by  new  discoveries, 
theories,  and  systems.  This  may  be  a reason  for  excluding 
them  for  a time,  sufficient  to  test  their  stability,  but  not  for 
debarring  them  from  the  companionship  of  their  associates, 
in  a dictionary,  when  they  have  been  daily  in  honourable 
use  for  half  a century  or  even  a century. 

The  English  Language,  like  all  other  languages  of  civilized 
nations,  is  capable  of  being  divided  into  Common  and  Tech- 
nical, but  with  one  striking  peculiarity,  which  has  an  impor- 
tant bearing  on  its  acquisition  in  a course  of  school  instruc- 
tion. In  regard  to  the  materials  of  which  it  is  composed,  it 
may  be  said  to  possess  the  most  mixed  character  of  any  lan- 
guage in  Europe.  While  the  languages  that  are  of  Latin  and 
Teutonic  origin  have  their  own  scientific  terminology,  they 
retain  also  the  advantage  of  having,  to  a very  great  extent,

the  etymological  radicals  of  this  terminology  in  use,  in  the 
familiar  speech  of  the  people,  so  that  the  phraseology  of  Lit* 
erature  and  Science  does  not  differ  much  from  that  of  the 
community  in  general.  This  is  very  much  the  case  with  the 
French,  Spanish,  and  Italian,  but  especially  so  with  the  Ger- 
man, which  can  boast  that  it  is  not  under  the  necessity  of 
borrowing  a single  term  from  the  Latin  or  Greek.  Such  are 
its  Etymological  powers,  that,  however  the  field  of  science  may 
enlarge,  so  as  to  make  new  words  indispensable,  it  is  able  to 
meet  every  want  from  its  own  resources.  The  English,  though 
its  original  and  constructive  basis  is  Saxon  or  German,  has 
lost  this  power  in  the  changes  it  has  undergone,  and  from  the 
circumstance  of  the  English  nation  first  learning  the  sciences 
through  the  medium  of  the  Latin  and  Greek.  Hence  it  exhibits 
in  its  words,  the  features  of  three  distinct  languages.  The 
conversation  of  children  and  illiterate  persons,  is  almost  ex- 
clusively made  up  of  words  of  Saxon  origin.  The  language 
of  literary  persons,  and  of  our  authors  in  general  literature, 
is  composed  of  Saxon  and  Latin  derivatives  ; the  monosyl- 
labic portion  being  from  the  former  source,  and  the  polysyl- 
labic from  the  latter.  While  our  men  of  science  use  a phrase- 
ology consisting  of  Saxon,  Latin  and  Greek  terms. 

For  the  Saxon  portion  of  our  tongue  we  rarely  find  it 
necessary  to  apply  to  a dictionary,  but  for  the  words  whose 
roots  are  to  be  found  in  the  Latin  and  Greek,  we  must  either 
have  learned  those  languages,  or  be  obliged  constantly  to 
refer  to  some  expositor  of  their  meaning.  This  has  caused 
the  publication  of  a great  number  of  selections  of  words  for 
the  use  of  schools,  some  containing  a very  small  part  of  the 
difficulties  of  our  language,  and  others  presenting  a pretty 
full  collection  of  them.  In  these  works,  however,  the  pupil 
does  not  see  any  systematic  arrangement,  such  as  will  make 
him  acquainted  with  the  science  of  words.  We  mean  to  say, 
that  there  is  no  etymological  system,  and,  as  a consequence, 
the  task  of  studying  this  knotty  portion  of  our  language  be- 
comes extremely  irksome  to  those  who  are  never  conducted 
through  a course  of  Latin  and  Greek.  As  the  great  majority 
of  our  youthful  population  are  denied  this  advantage,  a work 
that  shall  present  these  difficulties  in  an  easy,  scientific,  and 
attractive  form,  has  become  truly  a desideratum.  This  can 


BY  THE  AMERICAN  EDITOR.  xvii 

be  effected  in  no  other  way  so  well  as  by  making  Etymology 
the  basis  of  the  exposition  of  our  polysyllabic  terms.  This 
has  been  done  in  the  present  work,  by  Mr.  Oswald,  in  a man- 
ner which  exhibits  a synoptical  view  of  the  Latin  and  Greek 
derivatives  in  our  language,  more  copious  and  better  ar- 
ranged than  any  thing  of  the  kind  that  has  yet  been  pub- 
lished. 

Etymology  is  a most  important  branch  of  the  science  of 
Philology.  It  offers  to  our  view  a series  of  generalizations, 
which  afford  the  means  of  obtaining  a knowledge  of  a vast 
range  of  words  with  very  little  labor  when  compared  with 
the  process  that  is  usually  gone  through.  By  prosecuting 
with  perseverance,  the  judicious  study  of  the  relations  of 
derivative  words  from  their  primitives,  the  pupil  will  acquire 
a philosophical  acquaintance  with  our  language.  This  can 
be  rendered  still  more  interesting  by  combining  with  it  a 
course  of  exercises  founded  on  the  principles  which  we  have 
endeavoured  to  establish  in  this  introduction.  These  exer- 
cises we  shall  present  in  succession,  and  offer  them  as  a prac- 
tical mode  of  using  this  book.  They  will  have  reference  to 
three  divisions,  which,  in  acquiring  language,  with  correct- 
ness and  facility,  we  consider  as  extremely  useful.  These 
are.  Ideology,  Etymology,  and  Phraseology. 

The  term  Ideology,  we  use  to  express  the  connexion  of 
ideas  with  words.  As  all  our  ideas  of  quality,  action,  and 
relation,  are  intimately  associated  with  objects  and  scenes,  it 
must  follow  that  the  words  denoting  objects  are  the  principal 
words  in  a language.  These  we  may  call  ideological  radi- 
• cals,  and  they  should  be  the  subjects  of  the  analytical  lessons 
we  have  alluded  to.  The  terms  that  represent  qualities, 
actions  and  relations,  will  form  the  subjects  for  generaliza- 
tion. Etymology  is  properly,  only  a branch  of  Ideology,  but 
as  it  presents  us  with  large  families  of  words,  retaining  the 
orthographical  features  and  meaning  of  their  primitives,  it  be- 
comes so  valuable  as  to  merit  special  attention.  It  has,  hence, 
been  made  the  guiding  element  in  our  course.  By  phrase- 
ology, we  mean  an  analytical  exhibition  in  words  of  some 
scene;  and  here  it  may  be  stated  that  we  think  in  ivhole 
phrases  as  well  as  in  single  words,  just  as  we  think  in  whole 
scenes,  as  well  as  in  individual  'pictures,  or  parts  of  a scene.

INTRODUCTICfiV 


This  is  a fact  so  serviceable  in  its  practical  bearing  on  the 
learning  of  languages,  that  we  may  venture  to  say,  that  a 
language  can  never  be  speedily  taught  without  making  it  a 
primary  point  in  our  exercises. 

In  order  to  bring  into  practice  the  principles  we  have  laid 
down,  it  is  indispensable  that  the  pupil  or  class  who  are  con- 
ducted through  this  book,  should  write  phrases  exemplifying 
the  practical  use  of  each  word.  When  the  prescribed  lesson 
has  been  written  and  examined,  an  oral  review  of  it  ought  to 
be  made,  in  order  to  notice  the  different  ideological  relations 
of  every  word;  as, — 

1st.  What  sensible  properties  are  or  maybe  included  in  the 
meaning  of  the  word  under  consideration ; and  by  which  of 
the  senses  do  we  become  acquainted  with  its  existence  1 If 
we  take  the  word  table,  we  find  that  it  possesses  visible  and 
tactile  properties ; and  we  are  made  acquainted  with  its  pres- 
ence by  our  sight  and  our  touch ; and  we  may  be  also  by 
our  hearing,  A Jlower  may  be  known  to  us  by  sight,  touch, 
smell,  and  taste ; sugar  by  touch,  taste,  smell,  sight,  and  even 
by  hearing, — This  is  a fundamental  exercise,  and  should 
never  be  omitted,  as  it  strengthens  the  faculty  of  attention, 
and  leads  to  many  novel  and  striking  observations  and  com- 
parisons. 

2dly.  Does  the  word  express  an . object,  a quality,  or  an 
action?  For  instance,  orange  expresses  an  object,  te^id,  a 
quality, ^02^^,  an  action.  ' 

3dly.  Does  it  express  an  intellectual  perception,  or  a morai 
feeling?  e.  g.  Green  represents  an  intellectual  perception, 
good  a moral  feeling;  so  also  amiable  and  hateful;  while  hara 
usually  expresses  an  intellectual  perception,  but  may  likewise 
be  used  to  indicate  a moral  feeling,  as  in  the  phrase,  A hara 
man. 

The  same  remark  with  regard  to  utility,  is  applicable  tc 
these  two  praxes  as  to  the  first. 

4th.  If  the  word  is  the  name  of  an  object,  let  the  pupil 
give  an  ideological  analysis  by  naming  all  its  parts.  Suppose 
flower  is  the  word  on  which  a phrase  has  been  written ; we 
find  the  parts  to  be  the  calyx  or  flower-cup,  the  corolla,  the 
stamens,  and  the  pistil.  This  exercise  should  be  invariably 
prosecuted,  since  it  becomes  the  most  economical  mode  of 


BY  THE  AMERICAN  EDITOR. 


XJX 


acquiring  the  correct  definition  of  terms.  The  most  common 
object  of  nature  or  art,  as  pump^  eye^  shoe,  by  this  mode  of 
examination,  will  add  to  the  store  of  useful  terms.  In  the 
pump,  we  find  the  parts  to  be  the  stock,  the  hore,  the  handle 
or  lever,  the  piston,  the  hox,  the  valve^  &c. ; in  the  eye,  the 
cornea,  the  iris,  the  pupil,  the  sclerotic  coat,  the  lens,  the  viU 
reous  and  aqueous  humours,  &c. ; and  in  the  shoe,  the  vamp, 
the  quarters,  the  sole,  &c.  Another  very  valuable  result  that 
must  follow  from  this  exercise,  is  that  it  will  necessarily  pro- 
duce the  habit  of  ready  arrangement  in  composition.  The 
ability  to  classify  our  ideas,  and  reduce  them  to  a certain 
order,  so  as  promptly  to  present  a good  outline  of  our  views 
on  any  subject,  is  acknowledged  by  all  to  be  a great  acquire- 
ment. If,  however,  we  direct  the  attention  of  the  pupil  to  the 
uses  of  things,  and  of  their  parts,  we  shall  extend  still  further 
the  utility  of  this  praxis.  Thus  the  words  leaf,  liver,  heart, 
lungs,  would  afford  an  opportunity  for  remarking,  that  the 
leaf  performs  the  functions  of  a respiratory  organ  to  the  plant, 
as  the  lungs  do  to  an  animal ; that  the  liver  secretes  bile,  and 
that  the  heart  is  a muscular  machine,  which  forces  the  blood 
by  means  of  the  arteries  to  all  parts  of  the  body.  The  pupil, 
by  this  means,  will  gain  a great  number  of  elementary  truths 
in  natural  science,  which  will  prepare  him  for  farther  ad- 
vances. 

5th.  If  the  word  is  the  name  of  a part  of  some  object,  a 
list  of  those  objects  which  possess  the  part  mentioned,  should 
be  made  out.  The  same  process  of  generalizing  should  be 
used  with  words  expressing  qualities  and  actions.  This  may 
also  be  done  to  advantage  wherever  a general  term  is 
brought  forward ; thus,  when  insect,  bird,  quadruped,  are  the 
subjects,  the  forming  of  a catalogue  of  each,  will  be  a useful 
lesson  in  thinking. 

6th.  Classifying  objects  as  natural  or  artificial,  and  as  be- 
longing to  the  animal,  vegetable,  or  mineral  kingdom,  though 
simple  enough  in  itself,  has,  nevertheless,  a useful  tendency. 

7th.  Another  very  valuable  praxis  is,  to  require  the  scholar 
to  refer  every  word  that  is  capable  of  it,  to  the  science  to 
which  it  may  appertain,  or  in  which  we  may  find  a descrip- 
tion of  it,  either  as  an  article  or  a process.  Before,  however, 
we  state  the  mode  of  proceeding  in  this  exercise,  it  may 


XX 


INTRODUCTION 


be  proper  to  premise,  that  our  language  exhibits  the  singular 
anomaly  of  having  common  English  or  Saxon  words  for  its 
nouns  that  are  the  names  of  familiar  natural  objects,  while  the 
adjectives  that  are  used  to  distinguish  the  genus  or  species, 


are  almost  uniformly  of  Latin  and  Greek  origin. 

This  will 

be  evident  by  the  following  promiscuous  list,  viz. 

Jfouns. 

Adjectives. 

J\Touns. 

Adjectives 

eye 

dog 

. canine. 

lip

moon ....

.oval,  &c. 

This  list  might  be  enlarged  indefinitely,  but  these  instances 
will  suffice  to  show  the  extensive  prevalence  of  the  fact  above 
noticed. — But  as  the  common  words  which  are  of  Saxon  ori- 
gin are  not  to  be  found  in  this  dictionary,  and  will  not  of 
themselves  become  the  subjects  of  the  lessons  suggested,  we 
would  recommend  that  either  the  Latin  or  Greek  radicals 
that  may  be  in  the  lessons  should  be  classified  by  their  sci- 
ences, or  else  the  English  noun  to  which  the  Latin  adjectives 
relate.  Thus,  either  canis,  or  dog,  may  be  taken  when  we 
come  to  the  word  canine;  so  oculus,  or  eye,  when  ocular  comes 
under  review.  The  same  remark  will  extend  to  all  this  class 
of  designating  adjectives ; and  by  thus  reverting  to  the  Saxon- 
English  name  of  the  object,  we  carry  our  plan  of  scientific 
appropriation  through  the  whole  language.  In  this  way  the 
words  horse,  dog,  cat,  though  not  in  this  dictionary,  as  well 
as  elephant  and  rhinoceros,  which  are,  may  be  brought  for- 
ward and  assigned  to  that  branch  of  Zoology  denominated 
Mazology  or  Mammalia;  eagle,  crow,  crane,  wren,  &c.  to 
Ornithology ; gnat,  bee,  wasp,  larva,  chrysalis,  &c.  to  Ento- 
mology; tench,  minnow,  shark,  mackerel,  to  Ichthyology;  a?/5- 
ter,  limpet,  muscle,  cyprea,  &c.  to  Conchology ; oak,  poplar, 
rose,  mushroom,  &c.  would  be  placed  under  Botany;  flint, 
gypsum>,  quartz,  talc,  sapphire,  diamond,  under  Mineralogy, 
as  the  science  which  exhibits  their  classification;  and  to

Chemistry,  for  an  analysis  of  their  properties.  To  the  latter 
science  we  also  transfer  the  terms  oxygen^  oxidizement^  com^ 
bustion,  fermentation,  &c.  as  constituting  a part  of  its  nomen- 
clature. Mountain,  river,  rock,  quarry,  mine,  pebble,  &c. 
belong  to  Geology,  which  theorises  on  their  formation,  ar- 
rangement, &c.  Bone,  brain,  heart,  lungs,  &c.  will  come 
under  Anatomy  for  a description  of  them,  and  under  Physio- 
logy for  an  account  of  their  functions.  By  pursuing  these 
hints,  the  various  divisions  of  Physical,  Mathematical,  and 
Metaphysical  science  may  have  their  subjects  and  their  terms 
identified.  We  might  perhaps  as  well  add  a few  more  in- 
stances, for  the  sake  of  those  to  whom  this  exercise  is  not 
familiar ; thus,  we  refer 

Fever,  consumption,  palsy,  epilepsy,  &c.  to  Medicine ; 

Fracture,  phlegmon,  abscess,  gangrene,  &c.  to  Surgery ; 

The  medicinal  properties  of  calomel,  quinine,  opium,  &c.  to 
Materia  Medica ; 

Cloud,  rain,  hail,  snow,  &c.  to  Meteorology ; 

Line,  angle,  triangle,  square,  circle,  &c.  to  Geometry ; 

Sine,  tangent,  secant,  &c.  to  Trigonometry; 

Sun,  moon,  star,  eclipse,  occultation,  transit,  to  Astro- 
nomy ; 

Lever,  wheel,  plane,  screw,  wedge,  &c.  to  Mechanics ; 

Barometer,  air-pump,  vacuum,  siphon,  &c.  to  Pneumatics ; 

Light,  vision,  inicroscope,  telescope,  reflection,  refraction,  &c. ' 
to  Optics ; 

To  think,  to  judge,  to  reason,  idea,  memory,  &c.  to  Intellec- 
tual Philosophy ; ' 

Proposition,  syllogism,  enthymeme,  sophism,  &c.  to  Logic ; 

Agriculture,  commerce,  manufactures,  wages,  pauperism, 
&c.  to  Political  Economy ; 

Moral  terms,  to  Ethics  or  Moral  Philosophy. 

One  advantage  accruing  from  this  mode  of  parsing  words 
into  their  sciences,  will  be,  that  the  pupil  will  be  able  to  tell 
in  what  science  he  may  look  for  the  investigation  of  any  sub- 
ject of  inquiry.  But  this  is  not  all ; the  plan  admits  of  such 
an  extension  as  to  become  an  excellent  means  of  ascertaining 
the  generic  and  specific  divisions  of  every  branch  of  human 
knowledge.  By  making  out  lists  under  general  and  specific

INTRODUCTION 


terms  as  recommended  in  a previous  exercise,  it  cannot  fail 
in  accomplishing  beneficial  results. 

It  may  be  stated  that  the  knowledge  gained  in  this  way 
would  not  be  deep  nor  extensive.  This  is  in  some  measure 
true,  ^ it  is  not  expected  that  our  scholar  should  possess  as 
profound  views  of  a subject  as  the  adept  who  has  made  it  for 
years  his  study.  But  he  will  have  the  keys  of  knowledge ; 
and  will  have  fully  come  up  to  Locke’s  opinion  of  this  matter, 
where  he  says  “that  youth  should  earlj/  be  afforded  bl general 
view  of  all  the  divisions  of  human  knowledge,  as  well  that 
they  may  apply  themselves  to  that  which  may  hereafter  suit 
their  turn  best,  as  that  they  may  see  the  connexion  and  har- 
mony of  all  the  sciences.”  But  no  objection  can  exist  on  this 
score,  when  it  is  understood,  that,  in  most  cases,  it  is  sup- 
posed that  this  course  in  the  English  shall  be  either  accompa- 
nied or  succeeded  by  the  study  of  the  Physical,  Mathematical, 
and  other  sciences. 

8th.  Keeping  up  all  the  previous  exercises,  another  may  be 
added,  which  is,  to  notice  the  synonymous  words  of  our  lan- 
guage, and  determine  the  various  shades  of  difference  in  their 
meaning.  Their  use  in  affording  variety  of  expression,  and 
how  the  sentence  must  be  changed  in  its  arrangement  in 
order  to  effect  this,  should  also  be  attended  to.  Vagueness 
in  the  application  of  synonymes  cannot  be  permitted,  lest  the 
very  copiousness  which  they  give  to  the  language  become  a 
serious  injury  by  exciting  misunderstandings  among  those 
who  use  them  incorrectly.  Locke,  in  speaking  of  the  neces- 
sity of  understanding  the  full  force  of  words,  remarks  that 
“ the  want  of  a precise  signification  in  their  words  when  men 
come  to  reason,  especially  on  moral  matters,  is  the  cause  of 
very  obscure  and  uncertain  notions.  They  use  their  undeter- 
mined words  confidently,  without  much  troubling  their  heads 
with  a fixed  meaning  ; whereby,  besides  the  ease  of  it,  they 
obtain  this  advantage,  that  as  in  such  discourses  they  are  sel- 
dom in  the  right,  so  they  are  as  seldom  to  be  convinced  that 
they  are  in  the  wrong : it  being  just  the  same,  to  go  about  to 
draw  these  persons  out  of  their  mistakes,  who  have  no  settled 
notions,  as  to  dispossess  a vagrant  of  his  habitation,  who  has 
no  settled  abode.  The  chief  end  of  language  being  to  be  un- 
derstood, words  serve  not  for  that  end  when  thev  excite  not,

in  the  mind  of  the  hearer,  the  same  idea  which  they  stand  for 
in  the  mind  of  the  speaker.” 

The  examination  of  synonymous  words  affords  a good  op- 
portunity for  the  exercise  of  discrimination  and  taste.  The 
practice  of  separating  from  each  word  the  ideas  of  which  it  is 
not  properly  the  representative,  as  well  as  noticing  which  is 
the  most  perspicuous  mode  of  expressing  a sentiment,  must 
tend  to  cultivate  the  taste  and  refine  the  style  of  the  pupil. 
The  etymological  course  contained  in  this  dictionary  presents 
the  best  elements  for  pursuing  these  investigations.  For, 
however  much  words  may  in  many  instances  vary  from  their 
radical  meaning,  and  exhibit  paronymous  deviations  from 
their  etymon,  still  the  etymology  of  words  is,  generally 
speaking,  the  true  basis  on  which  to  settle  their  definitions. 
Hence,  in  all  works  on  synonymy,  the  derivation  is  made  the 
elementary  part  of  the  examination. 

After  observing  the  derivation  of  two  or  more  words  of 
similar  meaning,  the  pupil  may  be  led  to  perceive  their  differ- 
ence, by  noticing  which  is  most  general,  and  which  most  spe- 
cific in  its  applications:  In  the  words  give,  grant,  bestow,  it  is 
easily  seen  that  give  has  a more  general  meaning  than  grant ; 
and  grant  a more  general  meaning  than  bestow.  So,  in  way, 
road,  route,  course,  the  same  differences  in  their  general  and 
specific  application  will  readily  decide  the  true  sense  which 
correct  usage  has  attached  to  each  word. 

The  mixed  character  of  our  language,  before  alluded  to,  is 
an  abundant  source  of  our  synonymous  words.  Thus  the 
Latin  and  the  Saxon  terms  run  a parallel  course  through  the 
language,  e.  g. 


Saxon.  Latin. 

happiness felicity. 

unhappy miserable. 

dreadful terrible. 

footstep vestige. 


Saxon.  Latin. 

swiftness  ....... .velocity. 

fleetness celerity. 

brink margin. 

beseech supplicate,  &c. 


These  examples  might  be  extended  to  hundreds;  buf  those 
presented  are  sufficient  to  show  how  much  the  copiousness 
of  the  English  is  dependent  on  terms  adopted  from  the  Latin. 
We  still  see  the  same  mode  of  ascertaining  the  shades  of 
meaning  applicable  to  these  as  to  other  syononymous  words ; 
that  is,  their  more  general  or  more  specific  acceptation. 


XXIV 


INTRODUCTION 


Sometimes  the  true  shades  of  ditference  in  the  meaning  of 
synonymes  may  be  ascertained  by  examining  their  opposites, 
or  words  of  a contrary  meaning.  They  may  also  in  many 
cases  be  known  by  observing  whether  one  word  is  not  more 
usually  applied  to  mental  objects,  while  the  other  is  used  to 
designate  those  that  are  material. 

By  a constant  reference  to  these  few  principles,  the  inves- 
tigations connected  with  synonymous  words  will  become 
both  easy  and  interesting. 

9th.  We  may  now  add  another  exercise  to  the  foregoing; 
namely,  the  examination  of  equivocal  and  paronymous  words. 
These  constitute  a large  class,  and  assume  a special  import- 
ance in  the  study  of  language,  from  the  circumstance  that 
they  give  rise  to  many  misunderstandings  and  disputes ; and 
are  a fruitful  source  of  fallacies  in  our  reasoning.  This  arises 
from  the  word  having  several  meanings,  if  a primitive  word; 
or  from  its  deviating  from  the  signification  of  its  radical,  if  a 
derivative.  To  take  as  an  instance  of  the  former  sort,  the 
word  we  see  that  it  means  proper,  suitable,  aparox^ 

ysm,  to  suit or  mast  of  a ship,  and  mast,  the  fruit  of  oak  or 
beech.  As  an  instance  exemplifying  the  latter,  Dr.  Whately, 
in  his  Logic,  speaking  of  fallacies  founded  on  Etymology, 
observes,  “ Perhaps  no  example  of  this  can  be  found  that  is 
more  extensively  and  mischievously  employed  than  in  the 
case  of  the  word  representative : assuming  that  its  right  mean- 
ing must  correspond  exactly  with  the  strict  and  original  sense 
of  the  word  represent,  the  sophist  persuades  the  multitude 
that  a member  of  the  House  of  Commons  is  boimd  to  be 
guided  in  all  points  by  the  opinions  of  his  constituents ; and, 
in  short,  to  be  merely  their  spokesman:  whereas  law  and 
custom,  which,  in  this,  may  be  considered  as  fixing  the 
meaning  of  the  term,  require  no  such  thing,  but  enjoin  the 
representative  to  act  according  to  the  best  of  his  own  judg- 
ment, and  on  his  own  responsibility.”  It  may  be  stated  that 
ambiguity  in  an  equivocal  word  can  only  obtain  while  it  is 
used  as  the  same  part  of  speech,  grammatically  speaking;  for 
so  soon  as  the  word  assumes  a meaning  which  constitutes  it 
another  part  of  speech,  it  is  not  difficult  to  determine  its  true 
signification.  The  reverse  of  this,  however,  takes  place  with 
most  of  those  which  may  be  classed  as  paronymous  words.

By  watching  closely  those  paronymous  deviations  in  deriva- 
tive words,  we  shall  give  the  science  of  Etymology  its  true 
value,  and  shield  it  from  the  ridicule  by  which  it  has  some- 
times been  assailed  by  such  men  as  Swift ; whose  wit  and 
whose  ignorance  of  philological  laws,  form  the  only  palliation 
for  their  fooleries.  At  the  same  time  we  shall  be  preserved 
from  the  opposite  error  of  Horne  Tooke,  Dr.  Murray,  Damm, 
&c.  who,  by  attaching  an  inordinate  and  exclusive  importance 
to  researches  into  the  origin  of  words,  have  exposed  the  sub- 
ject to  unmerited  obloquy. 

The  etymological  course  contained  in  this  work  presents  a 
grand  synoptical  view  of  the  difficulties  of  our  language.  But 
although  all  the  primary  meanings  are  given  from  which 
most  of  the  rest  may  readily  be  known,  yet  it  is  not  intended 
to  set  aside  the  use  of  a common  dictionary  on  the  usual 
alphabetic  arrangement.  As  a book  of  reference,  it  will  be 
necessary  to  resort  to  another  dictionary,  more  particularly 
in  the  case  of  these  equivocal  or  paronymous  terms. 

lOth.  In  the  study  of  language,  there  are  few  exercises 
more  interesting  or  useful  than  an  attention  to  comparisons, 
and  the  figurative  meanings  of  words ; and  the  epithets  that 
may  be  applied  to  nouns  representing  either  material  or  im- 
material objects.  Thus  the  sun  is  compared  to  a king,  life  to 
a lamp,  wisdom  to  light,  hope  to  an  anchor,  <&c.  &c.  When- 
ever words  are  presented  in  the  lessons  that  represent  or 
allude  to  natural  objects,  an  opportunity  is  afforded  for 
directing  the  mind  of  the  pupil  to  figurative  uses  and  compa- 
risons. Epithets,  as  descriptive  adjectives,  will  result  from 
these  comparisons.  It  forms  an  excellent  lesson  in  thinking 
and  in  language  for  the  pupil  to  apply  all  the  epithets  he  can 
find,  which  can  in  any  way  describe  or  distinguish  the  word 
under  consideration.  Thus,  to  take  the  word  lion  as  an 
example,  he  is  figuratively  called  the  king  of  beasts,  the  mon- 
arch of  the  forests,  &c. ; and  the  adjective  epithets  that 
describe  him  are  tawny,  yellow,  roaring,  raging,  fierce,  hold, 
courageous,  noble,  majestic,  proud,  stately,  hounding,  shaggy, 
long-maned,  bloody,  cruel,  ravenous,  &c.  These  instances  may 
answer  to  exemplify  our  views  on  this  point ; their  utility  is 
so  evident  as  to  need  no  argument  to  enforce  them.

INTRODUCTION 


11th.  Another  attempt  at  awakening  interest  might  be  made 
by  endeavouring  to  ascertain  what  is  tacitly  implied  in  any 
word  as  some  way  connected  or  co-existent  with  it;  e.  g.  the 
word  thunder  necessarily  associates  with  its  meaning  the 
additional  ideas  of  lightning,  clouds,  and  warm  weather, — In 
the  word  pump,  we  find  that  the  probable  associations  are, 
that  it  is  in  a well,  and  near  a house:  but  neither  of  these  may 
be  true,  and  the  degree  of  truth  must  be  measured  by  what 
is  the  most  usual  condition  of  things.  Our  ideas  of  associa- 
tion thus  divide  themselves  into  necessary  and  contingent. 
When  we  mention  the  word  roof,  the  imagination  immedi- 
ately sets  a building  under  it,  yet  the  term  may  be  applied  to 
the  same  object  entirely  separated  from  any  building.  Still, 
where  there  is  no  direct  proof  to  the  contrary,  the  mind  rests 
satisfied  with  the  highest  probability,  resulting  from  the  most 
common  connexion  of  things.  So,  to  see,  to  hear,  to  eat,  &c. 
necessarily  imply  some  being  that  sees,  hears,  eats,  and  some- 
thing seen,  heard,  or  eaten,  as  well  as  a time  and  place  where 
these  actions  were  performed.  A number  of  contingent  asso- 
ciations arise  with  these  words,  which  it  is  also  well  to  bring 
under  review  as  possibilities. 

To  some  persons  these  exercises  may  appear  trivial ; but 
they  certainly  cannot  know  how  much  the  imagination  is 
strengthened  by  them,  at  the  same  time  that  it  is  brought 
under  the  control  of  the  judgment.  This  mental  process  is  in 
fact  the  course  of  investigation  pursued  in  all  those  cases 
where  we  cannot  arrive  at  mathematical  certainty,  and  forms 
by  far  the  greatest  portion  of  our  exercises  in  reasoning.  We 
read,  for  instance,  that  Noah  built  an  ark  of  gopher- wood,  of 
great  dimensions ; our  imagination,  guided  by  judgment,  may 
draw  a great  many  curious  and  highly  probable  inferences 
respect?mg  the  state  of  the  arts  among  the  antediluvians. 
Metallic  tools  were  necessary  for  the  construction  of  such  a 
building,  and  the  knowledge  of  various  chemical  processes 
is  presupposed  in  order  to  bring  any  of  the  metals  into  a state 
in  which  they  may  be  used  as  instruments. 

In  reference  to  the  reasonings  of  common  life,  this  praxis 
is  of  such  value  as  not  to  yield  in  utility  to  mathematical 
researches ; and  though  it  does  not  arrive  at  the  same  cer- 
tainty, yet  it  gives  equal  exercise  to  the  powers  of  memory^

judgment,  and  reasoning,  with  the  most  accurate  course  of 
geometrical  or  algebraical  analysis. 

12th.  Our  last  exercise  in  this  series  will  be,  to  embody  as 
much  as  possible  all  the  preceding  ones  in  a practical  effort  at 
forming  scenery,  by  all  the  natural  associations  of  which  the 
subject  is  capable.  Here  the  imagination  may  have  full  scope, 
and  vary  her  scenes  by  every  appropriate  change.  E.  g.  take 
the  w’ord  arbour:  here  its  location  would  immediately  be 
determined  to  be  a garden ; let  its  relations  to  surrounding 
objects  be  realized,  and  also  its  relations  to  more  distant 
objects:  place  it  in  imagination  on  a southern  slope  of 
ground,  overlooking  a river;  let  the  time  be  the  month  of 
June,  let  the  weather  be  pleasant,  the  plants  and  trees  flour- 
ishing, the  birds  singing,  with  all  the  circumstances  of  rural 
scenery  that  may  give  interest.  Then  notice  its  occupants, 
and  the  moral  feelings  and  contemplations  awakened  by  the 
scene.  When  this  is  realized  and  described,  change  the  sea- 
son and  the  place,  and  so  proceed  until  a sufficient  exercise 
is  given  to  the  mind  for  one  subject. 

In  this  way  the  imagination  may  be  cultivated  to  an  extent 
commensurate  with  the  natural  strength  of  that  faculty. 
Composition  would  become  an  easy  and  a simple  process, 
and  the  capability  of  making  the  written  phrases  on  succeed- 
ing lessons  would  be  constantly  increasing.  To  make  good 
phrases  on  an  individual  word  is  not  an  easy  matter;  but  its 
importance  is  so  great,  that  the  mode  of  using  this  dictionary 
rests  for  its  greatest  utility  on  the  persevering  adherence  to 
this  part  of  the  plan.  Etymology  is  very  valuable,  ideological 
analysis  and  intellectual  combination  extremely  useful ; but 
it  is  only  Phraseology  and  written  composition  that  give  our 
knowledge  a living  and  an  active  form.  We  have  so  much 
passive  education  at  present,  that  it  is  to  be  feared  that  the 
course  which  has  been  prescribed  may  not  be  followed  out 
as  extensively  as  it  should  be ; but  if  teachers  will  only  see 
the  subject  in  its  true  bearing,  they  will  not  think  that  too 
much  stress  has  been  laid  upon  its  constant  practice.  The 
habits  of  ready  composition  possessed  by  the  pupils  of  the 
deaf  and  dumb  institutions,  will  convince  any  one  who  is 
sceptical  of  the  efficiency  of  this  course.  Their  intellectual 
education  is  founded  very  much  on  the  principles  and*  prac-

tice  which  we  have  developed  and  endeavoured  to  bring  into 
active  existence  among  those  who^  have  the  use  of  all  their 
senses.  And  if  they,  deprived  of  one  of  the  most  ready  inlets 
of  instruction,  learn  so  much  and  so  well,  by  this  means, 
what  may  not  those  do,  who  shall  use  the  same  method,  with- 
out these  obstacles  and  disadvantages'?  The  facility  with 
which  they  bring  all  their  learning  into  a practical  condition 
on  the  spur  of  the  moment,  has  been  a frequent  theme  of 
remark  and  wonder and  the  great  usefulness  of  this  ability 
is  manifest  to  the  illiterate  as  well  as  the  learned.  Dugald 
Stewart  remarks,  that  “when  theoretical  knowledge  and 
practical  skill  are  happily  combined  in  the  same  person,  the 
intellectual  power  of  man  appears  in  its  full  perfection,  and 
fits  him  equally  to  conduct  with  a masterly  hand  the  details 
of  ordinary  business,  and  the  untried  difficulties  of  new  and 
hazardous  situations.”  This  view  is  applicable  to  every 
branch  of  human  knowledge  where  abstract  principles  can 
have  a practical  exhibition. 

This  work  will  be  especially  useful  to  those  pupils  in  our 
male  and  female  seminaries  who  do  not  learn  Latin  and 
Greek;  as  they  will,  by  its  aid,  be  able  to  acquire,  in  a simple 
and  philosophical  manner,  all  the  difficult  terms  of  the  English 
language,  including  most  of  the  terminology  of  science.  They 
will  thus  be  prepared  to  enter  on  a course  of  scientific  or 
literary  studies  with  much  greater  advantages  than  they 
would  otherwise  possess.  But  it  is  not  only  to  the  mere 
English  scholar  that  this  book  may  be  useful;  it  .will  also 
offer  great  facilities  to  those  who  are  going  through  a course 
of  Latin  and  Greek,  by  showing  them  the  practical  bearing 
of  their  studies  on  our  language : and  as  this  is  a subject  that 
is  not  enough  attended  to  in  our  schools,  it  is  believed  that 
half  an  hour  or  more  each  day  could  not  be  more  profitably 
employed  than  by  consecutive  lessons  on  the  plan  we  have 
recommended.  The  great  English  philologist.  Dr.  J.  Jones, 
observes,  in  his  Analogiae  Latinaa,  “ If  the  custom  prevailed  in 
all  the  schools,  (which  assuredly  ought  to  be  the  case,)  of 
tracing  the  English  to  the  Latin  language,  the  utility  of  this 
last  would  be  more  generally  and  permanently  felt;  nor 
would  it  be  so  readily  forgotten  in  manhood,  after  the  long 
and  fruitless  pains  that  have  been  taken  to  acquire  it  in

youth.”  This  book  presents  the  means  of  tracing  these  con- 
nexions to  a greater  extent  than  any  work  in  our  language. 
From  the  synoptical  tables  which  it  contains  of  the  Greek  and 
Latin  derivatives,  it  will  also  become  a useful  family  book  of 
reference,  for  those  who  have  long  since  finished  their  lessons 
in  “ hie,  haec,  hoc,”  and  “ 6,  to  but  are  still  disposed  to 
revive  in  their  minds  some  of  the  relations  that  connect  our 
language  of  science  and  literature  to  those  of  Greece  and 
Rome. 

With  regard  to  a series  of  lessons  in  compositions,  they 
may  be  very  usefully  pursued,  combined  with  these  diction- 
ary exercises.  They  may  be  divided  into  two  kinds:  1st.  The 
writing  out  from  memory,  after  a single  reading,  all  that  can 
be  remembered  of  any  subject  upon  which  the  pupil  has  read. 
This  will  cultivate  ready  memory,  increase  the  stock  of  words, 
and  improve  the  style.  The  second  is,  to  write  an  original 
composition  on  some  specific  theme.  Neither  of  these  will  be 
difficult  exercises  if  our  whole  plan  is  carried  out,  as  matter 
and  manner  will  both  be  familiar.  We  therefore  deem  it 
unnecessary  to  add  any  thing  further  by  way  of  directing 
the  mode ; but  cannot  leave  it  without  pressing  the  paramount 
importance  of  frequent,  yea,  daily,  set  compositions  on  some 
easy  subject,  whether  it  be  the  description  of  some  country^ 
animal,  plant,  mineral,  habit,  virtue,  or  vice.  Pope  says, 
“ True  ease  in  writing  comes  from  art,  not  chance this  is 
strictly  true,  particularly  when  we  unite  with  it  the  principle 
of  Horace,  “ Scribendi,  recte  sapere  est  principium  et  fons.” 
While  Pope’s  “ art”  or  practice  and  Horace’s  “ recte  sapere” 
are  faithfully  combined,  as  we  believe  they  are,  in  the  plan 
of  using  this  dictionary,  a judicious  teacher  cannot  fail  to 
teach  his  pupils  the  art  of  composition. 

There  is  only  one  objection  which  we  anticipate  against 
the  use  of  this  book  for  phrase-making ; viz.  that  it  does  not 
give  the  definitions  of  the  derivative  words,  except  in  a few 
instances  of  peculiar  meanings,  or  for  the  exemplification  of 
the  primitive  word,  and  leaves  the  signification  to  be  disco- 
vered by  the  scholar,  who  is  furnished  with  all  the  elements 
which  form  the  term.  This,  so  far  from  being  an  objection, 
presents  an  advantage  of  great  value.  It  offers  an  opportu- 
nity for  more  of  that  exertion  of  mind  which  constitutes  acU

ive  education,  than  could  possibly  be  effected  by  giving  the 
definition ; just  as  it  is  better  to  require  a pupil  to  give  the 
boundaries  of  a country  from  a map,  than  to  learn  and 
merely  recite  them  by  rote  from  a book.  The  latter  is  a 
passive  business,  while  the  former  is  active.  By  the  one,  he 
gains  ideas;  by  the  other,  words  only.  Where,  however, 
words  occur  whose  correct  signification  cannot  be  made  out 
by  their  etymology,  he  should  apply  to  the  common  diction- 
aries, such  as  Webster’s,  &c.  for  them:  but  this  should  be 
done  only  after  he  has  made  a proper  use  of  his  etymological 
means. 

In  conclusion,  we  hope  that  our  endeavours  to  render  an 
excellent  book  more  practically  useful  may  be  candidly  exa- 
mined, and  thoroughly  tested  by  experiment;  upon  the  result 
of  which  we  are  willing  to  rest  whatever  claims  our  opinions 
may  have  to  the  adoption  of  the  public.

Note. — The  reader  unacquainted  with  Latin  and  Greek  will  please  to 
observe  that  a and  e,  of  the  primitives,  are  frequently  changed  into  i in 
the  derivatives  and  compounds.  In  verbs,  also,  the  root  often  appears 
under  two  forms.  The  two  forms  in  the  Latin  verb  from  which  our 
words  are  derived,  are  the  present  tense  of  the  indicative  mood,  and  a 
form  called  the  supine.  The  present  indicative^  therefore,  and  the  supine 
are  usually  given,  which  are  sufficient  as  a guide  in  nearly  every  case.

* Atlas  was  a king  of  Mauritania  in  Africa,  who,  when  Perseus  showed  him 
Medusa’s  head,  was  instantly  changed  into  a large  mountain,  from  which  the 
contiguous  ocean  was  named  Atlantic.  ‘ The  fable,  that  Atlas  supported  the 
heavens  on  his  back,  arose  from  his  fondness  for  astronomy,  and  his  often  fre- 
quenting elevated  places  and  mountains,  whence  he  might  observe  the 
heavenly  bodies.  A collection  of  maps  is  called  Atlas,  probably  from  a picture 
of  him  in  this  attitude,  prefixed  to  some  collection. 

t These  words,  atone,  atonement,  in  the  Scriptural  sense,  always  convey  the 
idea  of  a sacrifice.  (See  Exod,  xxix.  36.  Ziev.xvii.  11.  Job  xxxiii.  24.)

* This  word  is  derived  by  some  from  %u/Ltos,  juice,  or  %uo),  to  melt ; by  others, 
from  an  oriental  word,  kema,  hlack.  According  to  the  supposed  etymolo^,  it 
is  wTitten  y or  e.  Some  deduce  it  from  the  name  of  a person  eminently  skilled 
in  the  science ; whose  name,  however,  is  written  both  xv/zr??  and  Others 

consider  Chemi,  the  Coptic  name  of  Egypt,  which  was  the  cradle  of  this  science, 
as  the  original. — V.  Morin.  Diet.  Etm.  Fr.  et  Gr.  “ It  is  derived  originally  from 
chemia,  and  that  word  from  Cham. — ^The  Egyptians  were  deeply  skilled  in 
astronomy  and  geometry ; also  in  chymistry  and  physic.”  Bryant. — Johnson’s 
Diet,  by  Todd. 

Chymistry  is  an  art  whereby  sensible  bodies  contained  in  vessels,  or  capable 
of  being  contained  therein,  are  so  changed,  by  means  of  certain  instruments 
and  principally  fire,  that  their  several  powers  and  virtues  are  thereby  discover- 
ed, with  a view  to  philosophy  or  medicine. — Boerhaave. 

Most  of  the  substances  belonging  to  our  globe  are  constantly  undergoing 
alterations  in  sensible  qualities;  and  one  variety  of  matter  becomes,  as  it  were, 
transmitted  into  another.  J'ke  object  of  chemical  philosophy  is  to  ascertain  the 
causes  of  all  such  phenomena,  whether  natural  or  artificial,  and  to  discover  the 
laws  by  which  they  are  governed. — Sir  H.  Davy.

* A deist  is  one  who  follows  no  particular  religion,  but  only  acknowledges 
the  existence  of  God,  without  any  other  article  of  faith  or  revealed  religion. 

But  “ the  word  deist  or  theist,  in  its  original  signification,  implies  merely  the 
belief  of  God,  being  opposed  to  atheist ; and  so  there  may  be  deists  of  various 
kinds,  according  to  their  respective  religions  which  they  receive,  over  and 
above  that  prime  article.  But  those  that  reject  all  traditional  religions,  and  yet 
profess  to  believe  in  God,  are  merely  deists,  or  emphatically  such.” — Waterland.

t “ Category  (in  Logic),  a name  for  the  predicates  or  attributes  contained  under 
any  genus,  of  which  Aristotle  reckons  ten,  viz.  substance,  q^iantity,  quality, rda- 
tion,  acting,  suffering,  time,  place,  situation,  and  habit." -^Crabb s Dictionary. 

$ That  property  of  bodies  of  restoring  themselves  to  their  former  figure,  after 
any  external  pressure, — as  in  Indian-;*ubber. 

II  “ When  certain  b^ies  are  rubbed  against  each  other,  for  instance,  amber 
or  glass  upon  woollen  cloth,  small  sparks  dart  from  them,  and  they  acquire  the 
property  of  drawing  light  objects  towards  them,  which  are  almost  instantly 
epelled.  All  bodies  do  not  possess  this  property  (in  the  same  degree).  If, 
instead  of  amber  or  glass,  a metal  be  employed,  little  or  no  effect  is  produced. 
The  substance  first  discovered  to  draw  light  objects  to  itself  is  amber,  the 
tjXeKTpov,  electron  of  the  Greeks,  and  hence  the  origin  of  the  word  electricity. 
Many  others  have  since  been  found  to  possess  the  same  quality,  as  glass,  jet, 
sulphur,  wax,  resin,  silk,  fur,  and  worsted.  These  are  called  electrics,  because, 
when  rubbed,  they  excite  electricity.  Those,  on  the  contrary,  which  have  not 
this  property,  that  is,  those  which  do  not  attract  light  objects  when  rubbed,  are 
called  non-electrics ; they  are  metals,  water,  and  a number  of  salts  and  earths. — 
The  most  remarkable  property  of  electrified  bodies,  is  their  first  attracting,  and 
then  repelling  light  objects.” — Fyfe's  Chemistry.

* “ The  equator  on  the  earth,  or  equinoctial  in  the  heavens,  is  a great  circle, 
whose  poles  are  the  poles  of  the  world.  It  divides  the  globe  into  two  equal 
parts,  the  northern  and  southern  hemispheres.  It  passes  through  the  east  and 
west  points  of  the  horizon ; and  at  the  meridian,  is  raised  as  much  above  the 
horizon,  as  is  the  complement  of  the  latitude  of  the  place.  Whenever  the  sun 
comes  to  this  circle,  it  makes  equal  days  and  nights  all  round  the  globe,  because 
he  then  rises  due  east,  and  sets  due  west,  which  he  doth  at  no  other  time  of 
the  year.” — Harris, 

1;  **  Equinoxes  are  the  precise  times  in  which  the  sun  enters  into  the  first 
point  of  Aries  and  Libra ; for  then,  moving  exactly  under  the  equinoctial  (line), 
he  makes  our  days  and  nights  equal.  This  he  doth  twice  a-year,  about  the  21sl 
of  March  and  23d  of  September,  which  therefore  are  called  the  vernal  and 
autumnal  equinoxes'' — Harris.

* “Fermentation,  a slow  motion  of  the  intestine  particles  of  a mixt  body,  aris- 
ing usually  from  the  operation  of  some  active  acid  matter,  which  rarifies,  exalts, 
and  subtilizes  the  soft  and  sulphureous  particles  : as  when  leaven  or  yest  rari- 
ties, lightens,  and  ferments  bread  or  worst.  And  this  motion  differs  much  from 
that  usually  called  ebullition  or  effervescence,  which  is  a violent  boiling  and 
struggling  between  an  acid  and  an  alkali,  when  mixed  together.” — Harris,

* Galaxy,  the  milky  way,  or  via  lactca,  is  a broad  white  path  or  track,*eT\com- 
passing  the  whole  heavens,  and  extending  itself  in  some  places  with  a douhle 
path,  but  for  the  most  part  with  a single  one.  It  has  been  discovered  to  consist 
of  an  innumerable  quantity  ol fixed  stars,  different  in  situation  and  magnitude; 
from  the  confused  mixture  of  whose  light  its  whole  colour  is  supposed  to  be 
occasioned.  Hence  any  splendid  assemblage  of  persons  or  things. — Agalaxy, 
without,  or  want  of  milk. 

t “ The  wife  of  Galvani,  professor  of  anatomy  at  Bologna,  accidentally  dis- 
covered, that  when  the  nerve  of  the  limb  of  a frog,  lying  near  an  electrical 
machine,  was  touched  with  a piece  of  metal,  it  was  thrown  into  violent  con- 
vulsions, even  though  it  had  been  dead  for  some  time. — Galvani  repealed  the 
experiment,  and,  after  varying  it  in  different  ways,  proved  satisfactorily  what 
had  thus  been  discovered  by  mere  accident.  He  found  that  the  convulsions 
could  also  be  excited  independently  of  the  electric  machine  (by  means  of 
metals.)  It  has  therefore  been  called  Galvanism,  from  its  discoverer,  and  some- 
times also  voltaic  electricity,  (from  Volta,  who  supposed  that  it  was  merely  com- 
mon electricity  evolved  by  the  metals,  particularly  zinc  and  silver,  the  animal 
being  the  conductor,  and  showing  its  effects);  and  the  apparatus  (being  plates 
of  zinc  and  silver,  arranged  in  paire  alternately,  and  a moist  cord  being  put 
between  each  pair)  by  which  this  was  proved,  is  now  termed  a voltaic  pile. — 
Sir  H.  Davy  found  on  using  the  very  powerful  battery  of  the  Royal  Institut’on, 
consisting  of  2000  pair  of  plates,  each  nearly  six  inches  square,  that  when  the 

f)ieces  of  charcoal  were  kept  at  the  distance  of  four  inches,  there  was  a bril- 
iant  arch  of  light,  and  the  greater  part  of  them  was  constantly  in  a state  of 
ignition.  By  Galvanism,  there  is  not  only  the  evolution  of  light,  but  what  is 
still  more  remarkable,  metals  are  easily  ignited,  and  even  fused,  so  that  an 
intense  heat  is  also  excited. — It  has  been  already,  stated,  that  it  is  generally 
admitted  tliat  Galvanism  and  electricity  are  one  and  the  same  agent ; and  that 
they  are  so,  is  evident  from  their  effects.  They  both  cause  contraction  of  the 
animal  fibre.  In  passing  from  one  object  to  another,  both  emit  light  and  heat. 
Conductors  of  electricity  are  conductors  of  Galvanism,  while  those  which  are

considered  as  the  same  principles,  still,  according  to  the  present  state  of  our 
knowledge,  they  may  be  thus  distinguished.  Galvanism  is  the  portion  of  elec- 
tricity which  forms  the  component  part  of  the  conducting  body,  in  the  act  of 
undergoing  a change  in  its  capacity,  from  a greater  to  a lesser  state ; while 
electricity  is  the  result  of  a temporary  change  in  non-conducting  bodies,  inso- 
much that  their  capacities  become,  by  attrition,  momentarily  increased.” —

Johnson.  That  swallows  lie  all  winter  in  the  bed  of  a river,  is  very  doubtful, 
if  not  untrue.  The  common  belief  is,  that  they  migrate,  like  other  birds  of 
passage,  to  a warmer  climate,  as  Africa,  &c.

* Oravimeter,  an  instrument  for  measuring  the  specific  gravities  of 
bodies. 

t Gravitation,  tlw  act  of  tending  to  the  centre ; the  pressure  that  a body,  by  the 
force  of  its  gravity,  exerts  on  another  body  under  it.  It  is  that  species  of  at- 
traction  which  opirates  among  bodies  though  placed  at  a remote  distance,  with 
a force  proportion3d  to  v^e  quantity  of  matter  contained  in  these  bodies ; such 
as  the  falling  of  a stone  to  the  ground.  It  is  different  from  Cohesicm, — a species 
of  attraction  which  operates  among  the  small  particles  of  the  same  bodies  when 
brought  into  close  proximity  to  each  other,  causing  them  to  unite,  and  when 
united,  retaining  them  in  that  state.  The  particles  of  a slate  are  kept  together 
by  means  of  this  property.  And  it  is  different  from  Chemical  attraction,  which 
is  that  force  by  which  the  particles  of  different  bodies  are  intimately  united,  so 
as  to  form  a new  substance. 

t “ Gravity,  that  quality  by  which  all  heavy  bodies  tend  towards  the  centre, 
accelerating  their  motion  the  nearer  they  approach  towards  it,  true  philosophy 
has  shown  to  be  unsol v able  by  any  hypothesis,  and  resolved  it  into  the  ira 
mediate  will  of  the  Creator.” — Quincy.

'^Hercules,  a celebrated  hero  of  antiquity,  the  son  of  Jupiter  and  Alcmena, 
who  travelled  as  far  as  the  Straits  of  Gibraltar,  and  is  said  to  have  erected  two 
pillars,  one  at  Cadiz  in  Spain,  and  the  other  opposite  at  Ceuta  in  Africa.  Her- 
cides,  by  the  will  of  Jupiter,  was  subjected  to  the  power  of  Eurystheus,  king 
of  Argos  and  Mycenae,  son  of  Sthenelus  and  Nicippe.  He,  apprehensive  of 
Hercides'  power  and  strength,  commanded  him  to  achieve  a number  of  enter- 
prises, the  most  difficult  and  arduous  ever  known,  generally  called  the  twelve 
labours  of  Hercules.  For  undertaking  these,  he  received  a coat  of  arms  and 
helmet  from  Minerva ; a sword  from  Mercury;  a horse  from  Neptune  ; a shield 
from  Jupiter ; a bow  and  arrows  from  Apollo ; and  from  Vulcan,  a golden  cuirass 
and  brazen  buskin,  with  a celebrated  club  of  brass.  The  first  labour  imposed 
by  Eurystheus  upon  Hercules,  being  yet  in  the  16th  year  of  his  age,  w'as,  to 
kill  the  lion  of  Nemcea,  which  ravaged  the  country  near  MycenaB.  2.  To  de- 
stroy the  Lerncean  Hydra,  which  had  7 heads  according  to  Apollodorus,  50  ac- 
cording to  Simonides,  and  100  according  to  Diodorus.  When  one  head  was 
destroyed,  two  others  immediately  sprang  up ; but  his  friend  Tolas,  by  his  com- 
mand, burned  the  root  of  it  with  a hot  iron,  which  succeeded,  and  he  became 
victorious.  3.  To  bring  alive  and  unhurt  into  the  presence  of  Eurystheus  a 
stag  famous  for  its  incredible  swiftness,  its  golden  horns,  and  brazen  feet.  4.  To 
bring  alive  a wdd  boar,  which  ravaged  the  neighbourhood  of  Erymanthus.  In 
this  expedition  he  destroyed  the  Centaur,  and  caught  the  boar,  at  whose  sight 
Eurystheus  was  so  frightened,  that  he  hid  himself  for  some  days  in  his  brazen 
vessel.  5.  To  clean  the  stables  of  Augeas,  where  3000  oxen  nad  been  con- 
fined for  many  years,  6.  To  kill  the  carnivorous  birds  which  ravaged  the 
country  near  the  lake  Stymphalis  in  Arcadia.  7.  To  bring  alive  into  Pelopon- 
nesus a prodigious  wild  hull,  which  laid  waste  the  island  Crete.  8.  To  bring 
the  mares  of  Diomedes,  wdiich  fed  upon  human  flesh.  9.  To  obtain  the  girdle 
of  the  queen  of  the  Amazons.  10.  To  kill  the  monster  Geryon,  king  of  Gades 
or  Cadiz,  and  bring  to  Argos  his  numerous  jlocks,  which  fed  upon  human  flesh. 
11.  To  obtain  apples  from  the  garden  of  the  Hesperides.  12.  The  last  and  most 
dangerous  of  his  labours,  to  bring  upon  earth  the  three-headed  dog  Cerberus. 
which  guarded  the  entrance  of  hell,  to  prevent  the  living  from  entering  the 
infernal  regions,  and  the  dead  from  escaping  from  their  confinement.  His  ex- 
ploits are  celebrated  by  the  poets  and  historians  of  antiquity. — See  Lempnere's

* Catholic,  literally,  the  whole  from  side  to  side,  all,  general.  The  church  of

not  limited  by  time,  or  to  any  sect  of  Christians.  Some  truths  are  said  to  be 
catholic,  because  they  are  received  by  all  the  faithful.  Catholic  is  often  set  in 
opposition  to  heretic  or  sectary,  and  to  schismatic.  “ Catholic,  or  canonical  epis- 
tles, are  seven  in  number;  that  of  St.  James,  two  of  St.  Peter,  three  of  St.

t The  Jubilee  was  the  grand  Sabbatical  year  of  the  Jews,  celebrated 
after  every  seven  septenaries  of  years;  viz.  every  forty -ninth  or  fiftieth 
year,  in  commemoration  of  their  deliverance  out  of  Egypt.  I'his  was  a 
year  of  general  release,  not  only  of  all  debts,  like  the  common  Sabbatical 
year,  but  of  all  slaves  ; and  of  all  lands  and  possessions  which  had  been 
sold  or  otherwise  alienated  from  the  families  and  tribes  to  which  they 
originally  belonged.  Critics  are  not  agreed  about  the  etymology  of  the 
word  Sll'i  Jobel.  Some  derive  it  from  Jabal,  the  inventor  of  musical 
instruments.  Gen.  iv.  21. ; and  suppose  that  this  year  was  named  after 
him,  because  it  is  a year  of  mirth  and  joy,  on  which  music  is  a common 
attendant;  or  as  we  say  in  English,  a jovial  time  ; the  word  jovial  being 
perhaps  a corruption  of  the  Hebrew  wotd  Jobel  ; or  else,  because  it  was 
ushered  in  with  the  musical  sound  of  the  trumpet  through  the  whole  land. 
'I'here  is  another  opinion,  which  bids  as  fair  for  probability  as  any,  that 
Jobel  comes  from  hy'ijahil.  in  hiphil  hebil,  which  signifies  to  recall, 

restare,  bring  back,  S&c.  because  this  restored  all  slaves  to  their  liberty,  and

* In  the  strictest  sense,  this  appellation  Jehudim,  Jov^aioi,  or  Jews, 

belongs  only  to  the  posterity  and  tribe  of  Judah,  after  the  defection  of  the  ten 
tribes.  Hebrews,  in  the  full  extent  of  the  word,  w’ere  the  posterity  of  Abraham, 
the  Hebrew ; Israelites,  the  posterity  of  Jacob,  or  Israel ; and  Jews,  the  pos- 
terity of  Judah,  one  of  the  sons  of  Israel.  But  after  the  division  of  Abraham 
and  Israel’s  posterity  into  two  kingdoms,  under  Rehoboam  and  Jeroboam,  the 
one  (under  Rehoboam),  was  called  the  kingdom  of  Judah,  because  the  tribe  of 
Judah  had  the  greater  part  of  it,  and  also  because  the  kings  were  of  that  tribe  * 
the  other,  (who  revolted  under  Jeroboam),  consisting  of  ten  tribes,  was  called 
the  kingdom  of  Israel.  Hence  arose  a distinction  between  Jews  and  Israelites. 
But  as  the  ten  tribes  were  afterwards,  in  a manner,  lost  in  the  Assyrian  cap- 
tivity, and  the  kingdom  of  Judah  only  continued  through  succeeding  ages  a 
body  politic,  the  name  Jews  came  to  be  applied  indifferently  to  all  Hebrews  and 
Israelites,  whether  they  belonged  to  the  two  tribes  of  Judah  and  Benjamin,  ot 
to  the  ten  revolting  tribes,  whether  they  returned  to  Judea  (as  no  doubt  sora«» 
of  the  ten,  as  well  as  of  the  two,’ tribes  did,  Ezra  vi.  17.)  or  not. — Jenning^

by  the  ladies  of  old  to  knights.  “ To  such  (knights)  as  were  -victorious,  prizes 
were  awarded  by  the  judges,  and  presented  by  the  hands  of  ladies, — with  rib- 
bands, or  scarfs,  of  chosen  colours,  called  liveries.  Those  liveries  are  the  ladies’ 
favours  spoken  of  in  romance  ; and  appear  to  have  been  the  origin  of  the  rib- 
bands which  still  distinguish  so  many  orders  of  knighthood.” — Brydson^s  Su7ri‘ 
mar y of  Heraldry.  From  the  old  cavaliers  wearing  the  livery  of  their  mis- 
tresses, the  custom  of  people  of  quality  making  their  servants  wear  a livery,  to 
denote  service,  is  supposed  to  be  derived, — hence  a particular  dress ; a garb 
worn  as  a token  or  consequence  of  any  thing.  Livery,  in  former  days,  Ihus 
seems  also  to  have  been  used  for  a cockade.  Livery,  in  London,  denotes  the 
collective  body  of  liverymen,  or  the  freemen  of  a company. — Johnson’s  Diet, 
by  Todd. 

* Locust,  signifies,  “ (1.)  a certain  vile  insect.  Their  nature  is  to  be  together, 
therefore  vast  multitudes  are  resembled  by  them,  Nah.  'm.  15.  In  Arabia,  and 
other  countries  that  are  infested  by  them,  they  come  in  vast  numbers  upon  their 
corn  when  ripe,  and  what  they  do  not  eat,  they  infect  with  their  touch  and 
their  moisture  coming  from  them  ; and  afterwards  dying  in  great  numbers,  they 
poison  the  air,  and  cause  di  pestilence.  God  plagued  the  Egyptians,  by  sending 
swarms  of  them  into  their  land,  Exod.  x.  12 — 19.  (2.)  Either  a large  sort  of 
grasshoppers,  or  a kind  of  green  herb,  IjCV.  xi.  22.  Matth.  iii.  4.  (3.)  Authors  or 
teachers  of  false  doctrine,  who  infect  others  by  instilling  their  poisonous  doc- 
trines into  them.  Rev.  ix.  3 — 11.” — Cruden’s  Scrip.  Concordance.  ‘‘The  He- 
brews had  several  sorts  of  locusts,  which  are  not  known  among  us : the  old 
historians  and  modern  travellers  remark,  that  locusts  are  very  numerous  in 
Africa,  and  many  places  of  Asia ; that  sometimes  they  fall  like  a cloud  upon 
the  country,  and  eat  up  every  thing  they  meet  with.  Moses  deswibes  four  sorts 
of  locusts,  (Lev.  xi.  21,  22.)  " Since  there  was  a prohibition  against  using /ocw s/s. 
it  is  not  to  be  questioned  but  that  these  creatures  were  commonly  eaten  m 
Palestine  and  the  neighbouring  countries.” — Calmet

* Etiology,  {ah  ahia,  cause,  reason),  an  account  of  the  causes  or  reasons  of  any 
thing,  generally  of  a distemper. 
t Etymology.  (See  page  127.) 
t Euchology,  a formulary  of  prayers. 

§ Genethlialogy,  literally,  natal  rites;  a species  of  divination  practised  by 
those  who  pretended  to  foretell,  at  the  moment  of  birth,  what  would  happen  to 
a child  during  the  whole  course  of  its  life. 

II  Geology,  the  science  which  treats  of  the  structure  of  the  earth,  or  of  the 
different  minerals,  stones,  earths,  &c.  which  enter  into  its  composition,  and  tho 
mariner  in  which  they  are  disposed  in  regard  to  each  other. 

IT  Historiology,  knowledge  or  explanation  of  history. 

Horologe,  an  instrument  that  indicates  the  hour  of  th^ay.  But  chrono- 
meter is  now  generally  used. 

ft  Horology,  the  art  of  constructing  horologes,  or  machines  for  measuring  and 
indicating  portions  of  time, — as  clocks,  watches,  &c. 
tt  Hymnology,  a collection  of  hymns. 

% “ Logarithms,  which  are  the  indexes  of  the  ratios  of  numbers  one  to  an- 
other, w'ere  first  invented  by  Napier  Lord  Merchiston,  {of  Merchiston  castle 
near  Edinburgh,)  a Scottish  baron,  and  afterwards  completed  by  Mr.  Briggs, 
Savilian  professor  at  Oxford.  They  are  a series  of  artificial  numbers,  contrved 
for  the  expedition  of  calculation,  and  proceeding  in  an  arithmetical  proportion, 
as  the  numbers  they  answer  to,  do  in  a geometrical  one  : for  instance, 
01234567  8 9 

1 2 4 8 16  32  64  128  256  512. 

Where  the  numbers  above,  beginning  with  (0),  and  arithmetically  proportional, 
are  logarithms.  The  addition  and  subtraction  of  logarithms,  answers  to  the 
multiplication  and  division  of  the  numbers  they  correspond  with  ; and  this  saves 
an  infinite  deal  of  trouble.  In  like  manner  will  the  extraction  of  roots  be  per- 
formed, by  dissecting  the  logarithms  of  any  numbers  for  the  square  root,  and 
trisecting  them  for  the  cube,  and  so  on  ” — Hawis. 

nil  Logic,  the  art  of  reasoning,  or  the  art  which  teaches  the  right  use  of  reason, 
and  treats  of  the  several  operations  of  the  mind  which  are  employed  in  argu- 
mentation or  reasoning,  as  memory,  conception,  abstraction,  imagination,  judg- 
ment, reason,  or  understanding ; also,  consciousness,  perception,  attention,  asso- 
ciation of  ideas;  all  these  are  called  the  mental  or  intellectual  faculties  or 
powers  of  man.  Logic  is  so  called,  because  thinking  is  only  an  inward  mental 
discourse,  wherein  the  mind  converses  with  itself.  Logic,  one  of  the  seven 
sciences.  'See  foot-note  on  philology,  page  214.)

W Martin  Luther,  the  leader  of  the  Reformation  of  the  sixteenth  century, 
in  Germany,  was  born  in  1483,  at  Eisleben,  in  Saxony,  of  parents  in  hum- 
ble circumstances ; at  the  early  age  of  twenty  years  he  obtained  the  degree 
of  M.  A.  at  the  university  of  Erfurt,  shortly  after  he  retired  from  the  world 
into  a convent  of  the  Augustinian  friars  (one  of  the  mendicant  orders,)  and 
assumed  their  habit.  Having  found  a copy  of  the  Bible  in  the  library  of 
his  monastery,  he  studied  it  with  much  assiduity  and  increased  his  reputa- 
tion for  sanctity  so  much,  that  he  was  chosen  professor  of  philosophy  and 
theology  at  Wittemberg,  on  the  Elbe,  where  Frederic,  Elector  of  Saxony 
had  founded  a university.  In  1517  he  openly  attacked  the  Church  of  Rome 
and  continued  to  war  against  it  until  his  death  in  1546.

except  the  thorax  and  heart,  it  is  called  a paraplegia;  if  in  one  side  only,  a 
hemiplegia ; if  in  some  parts  only  of  one  side,  a paralysis.  There  is  a threefold 
division  of  a palsy ; a privation  of  motion,  sensation  remaining ; a privation  of 
sensaticm,  motion  remaining ; and  lastly,  a privation  cf  both  together. — Quincy

11  Mahomet,  a noted  Arabian  impostor,  w'as  born  527, — his  father  a Pagan,  his 
mother  a Jewess, — began  in  608  or  612,  at  Mecca,  in  Arabia,  to  declare  him- 
self a prophet,  and,  by  the  assistance  of  a Jew  and  a renegade  Christian,  formed 
a farrago  of  doctrines  and  rites,  in  which  there  was  a mixture  of  Paganism, 
Judaism,  and  Christianity.  By  indulging  his  adherents  in  sensuality,  ambition, 
and  the  love  of  booty,  and  promising  them  a carnal  heaven  hereafter,  he  intoxi- 
cated the  imagination,  and  seized  the  passions  of  his  eastern  followers.  He 
propagated  his  religion  by  the  sword,  declaring  that  he  who  fought  the  battles, 
and  died  in  the  field,  in  the  defence  of  it,  his  sins,  of  whatever  nature,  or  how- 
ever enormous,  being  pardoned,  was  crowned  with  honour  in  the  highest

tain, and  their  nervous  fibres  give  them  an  exquisite  sense,  which  is  the  cause

medicines,  and  are  difficultly  united  when  wounded. — Quincy.

lustre,  fusible,  and  malleable  in  different  degrees.  There  were  originally  reckon- 
ed but  seven  metals,  viz.  gold,  silver,  copper,  tin,  iron,  lead,  and  quicksilver ; but 
this  number  has  since  been  increased  to  thirty,  some  of  which  have  the  metallic 
properties  in  a small  degree.  Of  the  primitive  metals,  gold  is  the  heaviest ; but 
platinum,  one  of  the  newly  discovered  metals,  is  found  to  be  still  heavier.” — 
Crabb's  Dictionary.  The  specific  gravity  of  these  metals  is  the  following : 
Platina,  when  purified,  is  about  20  times  heavier  than  water ; gold,  19  times  ;

signified.  ||||  Paronymous,  resembling  another  word. 

IT IT  Paronomasia,  a rhetorical  figure,  by  which  words  nearly  alike  in  sound

"I  Areopagus,  literally,  the  hill  of  Marsj  a seat  of  justice,  or  a soverei^  tri* 
bunal  at  Athens  in  Greece,  famous  for  the  justice  and  impartiality  of  its  de 
cisions.  It  was  originally  held  on  a hill  in  the  city ; but  afterward  removed  to 
the  Royal  Portico,  an  open  square,  where  the  Areopagites  or  judges  sat  in  the 
open  air,  inclosed  by  a cord.  Their  sessions  were  in  the  night,  that  they  might 
not  be  diverted  by  objects  of  sight,  or  influenced  by  the  presence  and  actions 
of  the  speakers.  By  a law  of  Solon,  no  person  could  be  a member  of  this  tri- 
bunal, until  he  had  been  archon  or  chief  magistrate.  This  court  took  cogni- 
zance of  high  crimes,  impiety  and  immorality,  and  watched  over  the  laws  and 
the  public  treasury.  See  Lempriere's  Class.  Diet. 

^ t Pagan,  a heathen ; a Gentile ; an  idolater ; one  who  worships  false  gods. 
This  word  was  originally  applied  to  the  inhabitants  of  the  country,  who  on  the 
first  propagation  of  the  Christian  religion  adhered  to  the  worship  of  false  gods, 
or  refused  to  receive  Christianity,  after  it  had  been  received  by  the  inhabitants 
of  the  cities.  In  like  manner,  heathen  signifies  an  inhabitant  of  the  heath  or 
woods ; and  Cqfre,  in  Arabic,  signifies  the  inhabitant  of  a hut  or  cottage,  and 
one  that  does  not  receive  the  religion  of  Mohammed.  Pagan  is  used  to  dis- 
tinguish one  from  a Christian  and  a Mohammedan. — See  p.  44. 

$ Palatine,  pertaining  to  a palace,  also  one  invested  with  royal  privileges  and 
rights.  A palatine  or  count-palatine,  on  the  continent  of  Europe,  is  one  dele- 
gated by  a prince  to  hold  enurts  of  justice  in  a province,  or  one  who  has  a 
palace  and  a court  of  justice  in  his  own  house.  In  Poland,  a palatine  may  be 
regarded  as  the  governor  of  a province.

X Pulse  or  Pulsation,  in  animals,  the  heating  or  throbbing  of  the  heart  and 
arteries,  in  the  process  of  carrying  on  the  circulation  of  the  blood.  The  blood 
being  propelled  by  the  contraction  of  the  heart,  causes  the  arteries  to  dilate,  so 
as  to  render  each  dilatation  perceptible  to  the  touch  in  certain  parts  of  the 
body, — as,  in  the  radial  artery,  &c.  More  particularly,  the  pulse  is  the  sudden 
dilatation  of  an  artery,  caused  by  the  projectile  force  of  the  blood,  which  is 
perceptible  to  the  touch.  Hence  we  say,  to  feel  the  pulse.  The  pulse  is  fre- 
quent or  rare,  quick  or  slow%  equal  or  unequal,  regular  or  intermitting,  hard  or 
soft,  strong  or  weak,&c.  The  pidses  of  an  adult  in  health  are  little  more  than 
one  pulse  to  a second  ; in  certain  fevers,  the  numbering  is  increased  to  90,  100, 
or  even  to  140  in  a minute.  The  stroke  with  which  a medium  is  affected  by 
the  motion  of  light,  sound,  &c. ; oscillation  ; vibration.  To  feel  one's  pulse, 
metaphysically,  to  sound  one’s  opinion  ; to  try  or  to  know  one’s  mind.  Pulse, 
literally,  beaten  out  as  seeds ; leguminous  plants  or  their  seeds ; the  plants 
whose  pericarp  is  a legume  or  pod, — as,  beans,  peas,  &c. 

$ Pelvis,  the  cavity  of  the  body  forming  the  lower  part  of  the  abdomen.

r Phcpton,  in  mythology,  the  son  of  Phoebus  and  Clymene.  or  of  Cephalus  and

Jupiter,  he  was  hurled  headlong  into  the  river  Po.  This  fable  probably  orisu-

as,  “ Where  is  the  wise  ? Where  is  the  scribe?  Where  is  the  disputer  of  this 
world  ?”  Among  physicians,  the  discharge  of  blood  or  purulent  matter  by  the

t Philology,  primarily,  a love  of  words,  or  a desire  to  know  the  origin  and 
construction  Of  language.  In  a general  sense,  that  branch  of  literature  which 
comprehends  a knowledge  of  the  etymology  or  origin,  and  combination  of 
words  ; grammar,  the  construction  of  sentences  or  use  of  words  in  language  ; 
criticism,  the  interpretation  of  authors,  the  affinities  of  different  languages,  and 
whatever  relates  to  the  history  or  present  state  of  languages.  It  sometimes 
includes  rhetoric,  poetry,  history,  and  antiquities. 

X Philosophy,  literally,  the  love  of  wisdom.  But  in  modern  acceptation, 
philosophy  is  a general  term,  denoting  an  explanation  of  the  reasons  of  things , 
or  an  investigation  of  the  causes  of  phenomena  both  of  mind  and  of  matter. 
When  applied  to  any  particular  department  of  knowledge,  it  denotes  the  col- 
lection of  general  laws  or  principles  under  which  all  the  subordinate  pheno- 
mena or  facts  relating  to  that  subject  are  comprehended.  Thus,  that  branch 
of  philosophy  which  treats  of  God,  &c.  is  called  theology ; that  which  treats  of 
nature  is  called  physics  or  natural  philosophy  ; that  which  treats  of  man  is  called 
logic  and  ethics,  or  moral  philosophy  ; that  which  treats  of  the  mind  is  called 
intellectual  or  menial  philosophy,  or  metaphysics.  The  objects  of  philosophy  are 
to  ascertain  facts  or  truth,  and  the  causes  of  things,  or  their  phenomena ; to 
enlarge  our  views  ol‘  God  and  his  works,  and  to  render  our  knowledge  of  both 
practically  useful,  and  subservient  to  human  happiness. 

$ Philter,  a potion  intended  or  adapted  to  excite  love  ; a charm  to  excite  love. 

II  Dephlegmafe,  to  deprive  of  superabundant  water, — as  by  evaporation  or  dis- 
tillation,— used  of  spirit  and  acids ; to  clear  spirit  or  acids  of  aqueous  matter ; 
to  rectify.

III!  Sense,  the  faculty  of  the  soul,  by  which  it  perceives  external  objects  by 
means  of  impressions  made  on  certain  organs  of  the  body.  Sense  is  a branch 
of  perception.  The  five  senses  of  animals  are  sight,  hearing,  touch,  smell,  and 
taste.  Sensibility,  understanding,  reason,  opinion,  consciousness ; meaning,  im 
port,  signification ; — as,  the  true  sense  of  w^ords  or  phrases.

* Revere,  Reverence,  to  regard  with  fear,  mingled  with  respect  and  affection. 

t Reverence,  n.  fear  mingled  with  respect  and  esteem  ; veneration.  Reve- 
rence is  nearly  equivalent  to  veneration,  but  expresses  something  less  of  the 
same  emotion.  It  differs  from  awe,  which  is  an  emotion  compounded  of  fear, 
dread  or  terror,  with  admiration  of  something  great,  but  not  necessarily  imply- 
ing love  or  affection.  We  feel  reverence  for  a parent,  or  upright  magistrate ; 
but  we  stand  in  awe  of  a tyrant.  This  distinction  may  not  always  be  observed 

X Reverend,  worthy  of  reverence  ; a title  of  respect  given  to  the  clergy  or 
ecclesiastics.  We  style  a clergyman  reverend ; a bishop  is  styled  right  reve- 
rend; an  archbishop  most  reverend.  In  Scotland,  the  clergy  are  individually 
styled  reverend.  A synod  is  styled  very  reverend,  and  the  General  Assembly 
venerable. 

$ Reverent,  expressing  reverence,  veneration,  or  submission. 

1!  Reverential,  proceeding  from  reverence,  or  expressing  it. 

^ Verecund,  bashful,  modest. 

**  Converge,  to  tend  to  one  point  ,*  to  incline  and  approach  nearer  together,  as

XX  Vermicelli,  literally,  little  worms ; in  cookery,  little  rolls  or  threads  of  paste, 
or  a composition  of  flour,  eggs,  sugar,  and  saffron, — used  in  soups  and  pottages 

ft  Vermicular,  pertaining  to  a worm ; resembling  the  motion  of  a worm. 

'^^Vermiculate,  to  inlay,  to  form  work  by  inlaying,  resembling  the  motion  or. 
the  tracks  of  worms. 

WWVermifuge,  0.  medicine  or  substance  that  destroys  or  expels  worms  from 
animal  bodies ; an  anthelmintic. 

Vermilion,  red  sulphuret  of  mercury  ; a bright  beautiful  red  colour. 

***Vermin,  all  sorts  of  small  animals  which  are  destructive  to  grain  or  oihci

apply  the  word  to  a public  minister  sent  on  a special  occasion,  or  for  one  par 
ticular  purpose ; hence,  an  envoy  is  distinguished  from  an  ambassador  or  per 
manent  resident  at  a foreign  court,  and  is  of  inferior  rank.

$$  Avenge,  to  take  satisfaction  for  an  injury,  by  punishing  the  injuring  party. 
To  avenge  and  revenge,  radically,  are  synonymous.  But  modern  usage  restricts 
avenge  to  the  taking  of  just  punishment,  and  revenge  to  the  infliction  of  pain  or 
evil  maliciously,  in  an  illegal  manner.

* Volcanizey  to  subject  to,  or  cause  to  undergo  volcanic  heat,  and  to  be  affect- 
ed by  its  action. 

t Promul^e  (a  pro  & vulgus),  to  promulgate,  Jo  publish  or  teach.  (Less  used 
than  promm^ate.) 

t Vulgary  the  common  people.  (Jt  has  no  plural  terminationy  hut  has  often  a 
plural  verb.)  Also,  pertaining  to  the  common  unlettered  people. 

$ VulgatCy  a very  ancient  Latin  version  of  the  Scriptures,  and  the  only  one 
which  the  Romish  Church  admits  to  be  authentic. — So  called,  from  its  common 
use  in  the  Latin  Church. 

II  Vulnerary y useful  in  healing  wounds  ; also,  any  plant,  drug,  or  composition, 
useful  in  the  cure  of  wounds. 

IT  Wonder y 1.  That  emotion  which  is  excited  by  novelty,  or  the  presentation 
to  the  sight  or  mind,  of  something  new,  unusual,  strange,  great,  extraordinary 
or  not  well  understood ; something  that  arrests  the  attention  by  its  novelty 
grandeur,  or  inexplicableness.  Wonder  expresses  less  than  astonishmenty  ana 
much  less  than  amazement.  It  differs  from  admiraiiony  in  not  being  necessarily 
accompanied  with  love,  esteem,  or  approbation,  nor  directed  to  persons.  But 
wonder  sometimes  is  nearly  allied  to  astonishmenty  and  the  exact  extent  of  the 
meaning  of  such  words  can  hardly  be  graduated.  2.  Cause  of  wondery  that 
which  excites  surprise ; a strange  thing,  a prodigy,  a miracle. — The  seven  won 
ders  of  the  world  were  the  Egyptian  pyramids ; the  mausoleum  erected  by 
Artemisia ; the  Temple  of  Diana  at  Ephesus ; the  walls  and  hanging  gardens  of 
Babylon  ; the  colossus  at  Rhodes ; the  statue  of  Jupiter  Olympius ; and  the  Pharos 
or  watch-tower  of  Alexandria. — {See  Lempriere's  Class,  bict.)

A KEY 


TO  THE 

LATIN,  GREEK,  AND  OTHER  ROOTS. 


The  following  key  has  been  prepared  to  assist  the  pupil  in  analyzing  the  compound 
words,  and  in  ascertaining  the  etymology  of  others,  in  which  the  form  is  very  unlike  that 
of  its  root.  All  the  words  are  here  alphabetically  arranged,  and  the  roots  from 

which  they  are  derived  placed  opposite  to  them.  By  leading  words  we  mean  those  from 
which  others  are  formed  by  the  addition  of  ordinary  terminations.  Thus,  secure  is  given, 
while  securely^  security^  &c.,  are  omitted ; and  if  accumulation  or  accumulative  is  sought, 
accumulate  alone  will  be  found  in  the  key.  Those  only,  however,  have  been  omitted, 
which  are  very  obviously  formed  from  those  included  in  the  key.  The  roots  in  paren- 
theses are  a few  not  found  in  the  general  collection,  but  which  are  necessary  to  the  com- 


plete analysis  of  the  words  with  which  they
